Adopted old dogs die immediately upon adoption?
amjoie:
Oh, how interesting. I wonder if regressing her age stripped her of layers. Hmmm -- that could be a big problem, if true. It might happen if artificially aged ahead, too. Well, no point in wondering. Modders wills soon discover it, if that's the case ....

When it happened to me, it was with an adult cat created in CAP. My first, as it happens. All the pets I've created in CAP since then have been fine. I wonder if it's a question of something not being initialized properly, if you create the pet before you randomize in CAS for the first time, or something like that. Has anybody seen this problem with pets that were NOT the very first one created in CAP?
Well, yes and no. This wasn't the first dog I made in CAS, but it was the first Elder dog I had made, but not the first dog I had a sim adopt. The "adult" dog I made as an alternative was fine, and didn't age improperly (which I was hoping it would to solve the age problem). It's got to be something about the dogs themselves, or at least not about the sim family or the lot or any objects, because the same family adopted another dog fine, lived on a lot with nothing but walls and a roof, and had nothing but a phone. Craziness.

I don't Know I think its something screwy with the whole adopt a pet thing as I created a Black Lab in CAP he didnt get along with the original family's female lab so I had them adopt him out he arrived at the new home 2 days from elder after leaving the old one as a adult dog at the beginning of his life span

I agree. Yesterday I downloaded the QA version of SimPE for Pets. I checked my problem cat. The lifestage said "unknown" - not baby, adult, or elder, just "unknown". All my other pets showed the correct lifestage. I think this is the cause of the aging problems, but why it got set to unknown in the first place, I have no idea.

Did something come of this?
Like amjoie and karen I too noticed any CAS Pet immediately ages. I created a new Pet in CAS, saved it as a new family, and quit. The new Pet showed with 0 days left in his lifestage.
