I’m really exited about the introduction of Kittens to Sims Freeplay, Because it’s something I’ve wanted scince I got this game three years ago, so I want to get one as soon as I possibly can, so I need to know how much I need to save up. How much are they?
It tells you in this post: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2016/01/16/the-sims-freeplay-guide-to-pets/
I need help when I close down puppy can not find Osiris
he should be at one of your sims houses, try looking around town for him
I have a problem with the home store. It doesn’t let me click the different sections including the pet section. It allows only the living room and inventory. Can you please help me with this? Did anyone experience this problem too? 😦
It all began when I updated the game recently..
How annoying! Sorry but I don’t know why it is like this, you may need to contact EA to see if they can fix this for you as I am unable to fix technical issues
My puppy picked up a chew toy and it’s never put it down again. Do you know how to fix this?
I have heard a few people have had this problem, you may need to contact EA to see if there is anything they can do to fix this, sorry!
I had the same problem. I relocated my puppy to another home. The toy was gone so I moved him back to his family. It we driving me CRAZY!
My puppy has been “stuck “with the red chewtoy for months now… Its eating and moving around with it.. I really want my puppy to let it go 😦 i need help with this…
Have you tried getting a sim to pick up the puppy and hug it?
I’m currently waiting for my stork to deliver my first baby and am working on my Spell quest now. I know I can only do one at a time, but in my park are both the nanny and the puppy! What one should I do first?! Does it make a difference? Will either of them disappear if I don’t get to them fast enough?
You can pick whatever one you like to do first, the other one will be there for you to do once you have completed the previous
I can’t find the cat
It appears at the house you are at
I’m probably not doing something right but I have the kitten and bought the playmat, but wherever I put the thing it doesn’t let me do anything to it. I’ve even put it in the middle of the floor and the footsteps keep showing over the Sims head. I don’t know why it won’t start the hobby?
Mine did that a few times, after a few attempts it worked but I decided to move the mat and it seems to have fixed the problem
Guess what? I got a Dalmatian instead of a German Sheperd and then the puppy odyssey quest popped up!!!!!!!! 😁😁 YAY!!
I still can’t complete my puppy quest due to the pup disappearing from my game.
Have you contacted EA? Only they can fix this for you.
I’v contacted them and they said you have to put your game in the cloud? What does that mean!?
you need to save your game to the cloud, this post explains: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2014/09/24/the-sims-freeplay-the-cloud/
Hi! I bought the free puppy from the pet store while i was still finishing the quest (my sim is saying goodbye to osiris) and the puppy doesn’t appear in the house i chose for him, is it normal? thanks!
No, that isn’t normal, have you tried looking in the other houses for him? Also go back to the pet store, if the free puppy is still available then the purchase must not have gone through
Does the pet store need to be built to finish this quest?
Yes, you cannot complete the goal to look in the store for the pets without it
your website is really useful thanks 😉
you’re welcome
Hi, my puppy play mat has not shown up in promotions r us.. the telescope hasnt either….. is this normal??
Have you completed this quest yet? Make sure you are looking under the hobbies section for the play mat and the careers for the telescope
My puppy was gone a week ago,how can i do? Help please!!!!
Like it says in the post you need to contact EA if you cannot find the puppy so they can fix this for you.
I have finished a few quests and now ib level 24 but the puppy quest is still not appearing in mine. What level should I be in to have this quest?
You need to be level 11 and click on the puppy in the park to start this quest, you cannot complete it at the same time as another discovery quest.
I keep sending Osiris back to the house where the puppy is but he keeps spawning back to another house. Is this normal?
No, but unless you are on the goal to show him the puppy it isn’t a problem as you just need a sim to talk to him
When you are finished with the quest and buy a second puppy or kitten, will they interact with each other? You know, adorable tumbling andvplay fighting.
I haven’t noticed them interact with each other!
I have a quetion unrelated to the quest. Where did you get your Scholarly Bookcase? (in the 14th picture) I can’t find it anywhere in the living room section in the home store with the other bookcases, and it’s not in the unlock items too.
I brought that one, but it looks like it is no longer available to buy, I don’t know why!
If you completed the Ocean View Estate quest in the limited time, the prize was a beach resort house or whatever it was called. There are about 3 scholary bookcases in there; I took one for my house! Hope this helps, but if you don’t have the house then I don’t know what to tell you.
I have done “sitting with puppy” and have put the puppy down, however osiris is nowhere to be found and it doesn’t show up in the list (folder) either. Does anyone know how I can fix this problem?
You will need to contact EA so they can fix this issue for you as they fix this issue when you contact them.
Hi! I love your blog! Quick question, after you finish this quest, will you be able to keep the puppy and/or the kitten?
Thanks! No, but the first greyhound puppy and first maine coon orange kitten are free at the pet store.
I have been trying to find the puppy to complete the task to hold the puppy whilst sitting on the sofa! But it’s not there! I have tried contacting the company but i don’t no what topics to click on when on their website! Please help me! I have lost about 2days now of the quest
you will need to fill out this form: https://help.firemonkeys.com.au/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=46384 as only they can help you unfortunately.
I cannot find the pupy and i dont how to contact. EA .
Can you help me by giving some guides …please i need to complete this quest
this is the link on how to contact them: https://help.firemonkeys.com.au/hc/en-us/requests/new?ticket_form_id=46384 only they will be able to help you.
I have no discovery quest on going right now but the available one is the balcony quest. Puppy quest still hasn’t appeared and I’m in level 28 already I’ve finished some of the quests before but still nothing. What quests do i need to finish first before the puppy odyssey quest ? Or should i build the pet store first? :c
Is the puppy not at the park to start this quest? I would recommend you build the pet store before starting this quest as you will need to access it during the quest
Hey first of all I love your blog. I’m almost finishing the puppy odyssey quest my Sim is saying goodbye to Osiris. However I only managed to access the pet store once. I couldn’t even buy the free puppy and kitten because my game crashed and when I opened it my particular sim for example was doing nothing and also the others weren’t doing their assigned tasks. The game works fine until I click the pet store. It just keeps crashing. Also when I click to have my sims plant beans sometimes it says 1260 simoleons and sometimes 840. What’s wrong? Please help me .
Try restarting your device before visiting the pet store again, this should stop it crashing for a while
And your sims need to be inspired (all needs filled)to earn the higher amount when gardening.
I already built the pet store. Is it normal that i can already access it without having the puppy quest? And the ones sold there are big dogs and not puppies?
Yes, you can build the pet store before you do this quest, in fact you need to build the pet store before you start this quest to be able to finish it in time.
You have to complete the quest before puppies and kittens can be brought from the pet store.
can you get the maine coon and the puppy for free even if you didnt finish the time limit?
Yes, once you complete the quest.

I am currently doing the “book of spells” discovery quest.I know after you finish that one though then there will be a wizard in a park for the “saved by the spell quest”, and I already see the puppy in the park but can’t access it until I finish my quest. Will the wizard for the next discovery quest hurt my quest for the puppy?
No, you don’t have to do saved by the spell next, you can do the puppy one, you just can only do one discovery quest at a time.
Do the puppies/kittens ever grow up to be dogs/cats?
They can if you bake a birthday biscuit on the stove or you can just leave them as puppies and kittens.
Can they age automatically if you have finished the life dreams and legacies quest?
No, animals don’t age automatically.
Once I completed the quest I have my puppy two bowls and a bone for him.He picked up the bone and hasn’t put it down yet it’s been almost 2 weeks
Try picking the puppy up, he should put it down then.
When I sent my sim home with the puppy the home was FULL. So, the sim stayed in the park and the puppy disappeared… I don’t know what to do.
You will need to contact EA about this issue to see if they can fix this for you as I am unable to fix technical issues
How do you contact EA to tell them a problem?
https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2016/05/29/the-sims-freeplay-contacting-ea-firemonkeys/
How much does it cost to make a birthday biscuit? Love your blog😃😃😃
15LPs, thanks!
Hi! Thank you for your help, first! I purchased the bowl of water and bowl of dog food while the sim was placing an ad and now the quest is to buy and place a bowl. It’s not recognizing I did already. I put it in my inventory and then replaced and nothing. I turned off the game and my phone and restarted and nothing. Any ideas on how I can get this to initiate? I opened a ticket but the time limit may make me rebuy them 😦
You will have to buy it again, goals that require you to buy things you cannot do before you get the goal.
Hi, I love your blog so much. It is so helpful. But I want to ask some question. First, why can’t I find my puppy. You said that I should contact the EA. Then, will the EA come to my house or something else will happen? Please help me. I beg you. I have been stuck in this quest ‘sit with the puppy’ for 5-6 months already. So please help me.
Thanks, I’m glad it helps!
No, you fill in the form on this website: https://help.firemonkeys.com.au/hc/en-us/requests/new (click on sims freeplay, then technical support) and they will email you back
Hi, again! I don’t know how to fill the form game center ID at the Firemonkeys. Could you help me?
Are you playing on an apple device? If not you will not have a game center ID, you can leave it blank
Thanks!
Hello.. How to verify that I am a human.. It does not allow me. I click on it and it says that I have to click on some pictures that related. But I clicked it and it says please check on the new images.
Are you using a computer? You may need to if you cannot see this on your phone.
I’ve decided to keep Osiris! WHO needs free puppies and kittens when you have a disco dancing alien who hangs out with the Sim scanning the globe (stored in a shed guarded by mutant plants) planning for world domination??? Who, I ask?!?! (Cue Osiris’ alien giggle) ;p
Seriously, I am at the last part to say good bye but I cannot do it. I started it, but at an hour in I stopped it. If one day he vanishes, so be it, but he is a better prize than pet clothes.
That is all. 😉
It is just after Christmas and Osiris has been a big part of my Sims’ daily lives… But I fear in order to finally progress and take advantage of new opportunities, we must say fare-thee-well in a few days, perhaps with a party. Parting is such sweet sorrow, Osiris. 😦
Hopefully he returns someday soon.
Yes Osiris will leave when you finish this quest.
Will you keep both of the pets? And also once you have selected one of them in the pet store will the other one still be free?Please help..
You don’t keep the puppy or kitten, you get one free puppy and one free kitten from the pet store once you complete the quest.
Do puppies and kittens eventually age to adulthood on their own or is the only way to age them up to make the birthday biscuits?
Sorry if this was asked and answered…I looked but did not see it. Btw, thank you for this site!! It is amazing and answers so many questions…really awesome that you’ve made this resource for players!
The only way to age them is with a biscuit, give this post a read: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2016/01/16/the-sims-freeplay-guide-to-pets/
You’re welcome and thanks!
I already bought a dog food bowl before the quest , what should I do? Do I need to buy a new food bowl
Yes you will need to buy another one.
After the task is complete is the kitten and puppy free? And how to age them?
Did you read the post? It says ‘Want to know how to age a puppy or kitten? Want to know how much they cost?- For information on the new Puppies and Kittens please read my Guide to Pets: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2016/01/16/the-sims-freeplay-guide-to-pets/‘
German Shepherd, Labra, Golden Ret & Dalmatian all are 2 star dogs with different prizes. I want to know that is it worth spending 25 LPs on Dalmatian or all two star dogs are more or less same when it comes to dig treasure?
Two star dogs will find the same, it just depends on what breed you would prefer. If you don’t mind just get the cheapest 2 star dog.
Thank you 😀
I’ll go with German Shepherd then, after all LPs matter
Help! I doing this discovery quest and I’m on bring puppy home but when I’m home the task doesn’t clear itself and move to next task and then I put down the puppy because I thought it will clear it up but nothing’s happen and the puppy disappears, when I want to get back to the park wondering if I can redo the action there’s text box saying you cannot take the puppy out of their house please put it down first.
What should I do? Thanks.
You will need to contact EA about this issue to see if they can fix it for you as I am unable to fix technical issues unfortunately.
Please help my sim picked up the dog and I made him leave but when he got home the sim was holding the dog but u couldn’t see the dog I went to the park and the dog was there levitating I tried to get the sim that I just used to go to the park but it said put the pet down to move location . I tried to get another sim to pick the dog up but it doesn’t work and I can’t contact ae because I’m only ten
Have you tried clicking on the sim who is meant to be holding the puppy and see if there is a put puppy down option?
I was so upset I couldn’t keep the puppy. We really bonded 😦
Aw! Don’t worry you can buy yourself a puppy from the pet store that you can keep forever 🙂
I already have a dog food bowl but do you have to buy another one? Because mine is not being counted
Yes you need to buy another one to complete this.
if you don’t finish the quest in time will you still be able to get a free puppy and kitten?
Yes, once you complete this quest.
Hi! Your blogs are so helpful!
I’m on the teenager quest now, and I’m taking a break because I’m in no hurry to teenagers and want to rack up some simoleons. The teenager quest requires Osiris. I want to start the puppy oddessy quest soon, but I see that it also needs Osiris. When I finish the puppy oddest quest, will Osiris go away? I need him for when eventually do the teenager quest.
Thanks a bazillion! Your amazing!
Thanks! 🙂 Osiris will hang around until you have finished both the quests
Hi! Your blogs are so helpful! I was just wondering if a preteen can do the first few tasks? I have busy adult Sims. Thanks so much! Your amazing!🎉❤️🧡💛💚💙💜💗
Thank you! I haven’t tried with a preteen but usually they cannot do quest tasks unless it specifically says ‘use a preteen’
