Due out this fall for The Sims 2 will be the Pets expansion pack. Unleashed for the original Sims had to be my favorite expansion pack so to say I’m glad to see Pets for the Sims 2 is an understatement. You’ll be able to teach your pet tricks. Pets come with their own genetics so go ahead and cross breed that German Shepherd with a Poodle to get a Shepoodle or Poodleherd.

Besides cats and dogs, Sims can have birds or guinea pigs as pets. Pets can also have careers. Fido can bring in some money to the household. Pet careers include movie star, security pet corps and rescue pets.

The Sims 2 Pets is coming out this fall for the PC, PSP, DS, GameCube, GBA, and PlayStation 2.
