The Sims 3 Pets is gearing up for its UK release on October 21st, with a new trailer and screenshots designed to whet the appetites of anyone who fancies taking care of virtual cats, dogs and horses.
Sims can interact with their pets in a variety of activities such as games and challenges, including tug-o-war and finding buried treasure.
On PC/Mac, players can even ride their horses through a new western-themed town or enter competitions at the equestrian centre.
The screenshots below should give a tantalising glimpse of what lies ahead, while you can find a new trailer for the add-on pack here: http://www.ea.com/uk/sims-3-pets/videos/sims-3-pets-honey-badger-trailer
