Thanks to @petivity for sending me the Smart Litter Box Monitor & sponsoring this video! Having it has been a game-changer for me (and Snap), and I think you'll really love it if you also have cats! 😺www.petivity.c... #ad

[@robinatdawn]

what if you made your blue suburbans with base game + pack for every pack, adapting the build to each world and such? would be a nice series

[@Aeris357]

I’m upvoting this

[@Tabooally]

This would be so cuuuute 💙🏡

[@literally_remus_lupin]

I would love that

[@ramotnik8061]

She kinda does this every time a pack comes out 😂

[@soimsha.]

a blue suburban for every world

[@geographynerd4888]

i’m counting down the days until december 7th , can’t wait for the apartment/townhouse marathon!!

[@0.o.0.o1]

I think early access starts tomorrow with the game changers😊

[@fluidize8532]

Could you please do an apartment where every room has a random color, budget, and pack? (This would probably be called the chaotic challenge)

[@-3laila3-]

I think this would be a great video

[@ave4315]

Yesssss

[@Paige.harris90]

Lilsimsi should definitely try this sometime!❤

[@maymay5259]

Ooo yes!!

[@nikkicurtis8073]

I was literally about to comment that she should do an "every apartment is a different pack" challenge!!!!!

[@Frenchaboo]

I don't think you should limit yourself to only 20k if you're gonna build a house with a fully furnished kids' bedroom. 20k is the budget for one sim to start out with, so then at least if the house has room to grow, put just a crib in or something. Otherwise it's a given the house is gonna have 2 or 3 sims from the get go, so it can go a couple thousands higher.

[@16taysia]

Agreed! 😊

[@frizzyhairedbandit3590]

Kayla is too precious for this world. Apologising for sharing info about Snap's bathroom habits 😂💕

[@Smurphmalinky]

Hey!! Could you do a house with only base game, but no budget or challenges? Just a nice base game home that actually looks good :)

[@anniekwit]

oh my god- when the announcement that my first pet stuff is free was out I kindaaa bought cats and dogs for it. and I was looking for a starter home from kayla. and right now I was like "omg another starter home" but it is the same one I believe. it's just fun to watch and be like "oh!! is that going to be a kids room- OMG it is!!!". Thank you for the amazing work, Kayla. ♥

[@prodbyliljenn]

i also got the cats and dogs pack when my first pet stuff was free lol

[@xoxnikafox2669]

i lost both my cats to kidney disease. something like this would have been so helpful because we weren't monitoring either of them enough. i'm so glad something like this exists for other people and their fur babies so hopefully they'll be around a bit longer :)

[@swagballin653]

Don't torture yourself with always having a budget Kayla! I wish you could do this challenge again but without any budget so you can go all in 😊 Or maybe increase the budget to 50k instead of 20k?

[@MadisonR-eg3su]

Simsie, I appreciate that you show us a little tutorial whenever you do roofing, because it sticks with me that way and I think about your tips every time I’m building lol

[@kayleeellerbeck7868]

ooo once pack is such a fun yet interesting concept! can’t wait for the for rent content too!

[@trendertime3835]

cats and dogs a long with brindleton bay make me really nostalgic, i grew up in new england so i build with the pack constantly, it was also one of the first sims packs i ever got

[@talky1823]

Praying for Snap's health to get better 🙏 ❤️

[@jaqsre]

i still think they should’ve called it “Sims 4 Rentals” 😭

[@NathalieTaylorsVersion]

That would have been much better!

[@Tots_]

Simsie: this color scheme is like... borderline unacceptable Me, whose favorite color combo is yellow and blue: .... 😐

[@ThumperE23]

Growing up where Cape Cods were common, the second floor bump out was extremely common. The funny thing about Cape Cods are they can be any where from two to four bedrooms, usually with the bedrooms on both the first and second floor.

[@ArielRoyalty]

Can you do this with, just for rent and seasons? Would love to see what you come up with

[@ailiblomqvist]

I am loving these longer 20 to 30 min videos!

[@davidsoa7]

I love the limited pack builds. Might be fun to do one with a wheel... and no budget.

[@sunflowervibes3041]

I love these limited pack builds! It’s so nice to see everything the pack can be and offers 😊 in fact, I would be extremely interested in watching some without a budget where you use all the best pack items and display the total potential of the pack 😁 It would help me because sometimes I feel overwhelmed about which packs have the most items I want (to buy next) - so it would be nice to see a whole picture ☺️

[@SuperOlivia1993]

You did not do cats and dogs justice with this decor 😂😂 don't worry about the budget!!

[@sulliwrites5226]

Could you please do a challenge where you can ONLY build with a certain style? Like Queen Anne or Ranch or Gothic or French Farmhouse, etc.? I'd love to see what the Sims categorizes in each style and how challenging it can be.

[@troebeliewoep]

That would be fascinating to see

[@rory956]

i love the kids room! blue and yellow are some of my fave colours and they're almost contrasting colours

[@thesourpatchkidd579]

i know that the community really hated my first pet stuff for being dlc for dlc, but the downside of them not doing things like that is we never get new content for packs- once a concept is done it's done, and anything pack specific we won't see again because they don't want to end up in the same situation, where you need to buy two packs to get the item and make it work

[@leomozeto]

that feeling when kayla uploads >>>

[@mollieherlocker5918]

I love that kid’s room. I’m a sucker for blue and yellow and bright colors.

[@zoic.mesozoic]

Now I really want to see how much prettier this house could be without budget (or with a bigger one).I like the idea of this series, but maybe you could do the packs more justice using nicer options for furniture and everything

[@KeViNMCMXXCIX]

Petivity doing work for our beloved pets. Nice built using just 2 packs. I do relate everytime I built a house it has something from Cats & Dogs in it, same with Seasons and Horse Ranch sneaking in there too, cause I like the country/farmhouse within houses.

[@svenfg8797]

The way I love these challenges, such a treat for my afternoons

[@buchenbj]

Oh, poor Snap. I hope she's okay! 🩷

[@marcellamaragno]

Bestie, that kid's room kinda hurts, but the house ended up adorable. I would love to see you build an apartment building matching Brindleton Bay ❤

[@ConfusedCorvid]

This house is so gorgeous. You outdid yourself with the landscaping simsie! 🌿🌼

[@BethB2010]

You might use the Petivity in conjunction with something like PrettyLitter. It changes colors when it comes in contact with certain abnormalities in urine; like blood. Love seeing Snap in videos :)

[@inviticaus7587]

Unfortunately pretty litter can cause issues in your cats. i think they have a lawsuit going on

[@maddisonmcafee6800]

Where did you hear about the law suit!?

[@Paige.harris90]

Your cat is so cute it goes in the build your building ❤

[@EsculentEvil]

It's actually really fascinating to see you do this cuz I did it too when I first got this pack a few years ago and your build is so different from mine it's just really cool to see the difference

[@floppybanana8939]

Brindleton bay is fun to build on tbf!

[@Hello_Honey_Sweetie]

The fact that tons of people have only one pack in The Sims 4... Luckily, I have quite a few packs, and the cats and dogs pack is actually a really good one, I agree Kayla! Also psyched for the new pack, I really want to build apartments and townhouses! The City Living ones are such a letdown...

[@richietoaster]

Pls I beg, make a house with an unlimited budget and use ANY pack you want 😭

[@Poseidoros]

The litter monitor seems like it would also be great for detecting urinary blockages! Male cats are incredibly prone to blockages (around 50% of them get blocked!) and if not treated soon enough they'll die from potassium overdose or dehydration. I've had 2 cats get blocked before, one when I was a kid and we didn't catch it very quicky because we didn't notice his litter habits change. He had to be at the vets for three days. Two weeks ago my cat Macaroni got a blockage, I'm lucky enough he prefers to pee when people are around to watch so my fiance and I noticed right away, apparently he hadn't even been blocked for an hour! He only needed to be at the vets for a single day. For people whose cats aren't like Macaroni, that litter monitor could save their cats lives I'm so glad something like this exists!!

[@sarahhenry3262]

I really like your sponsor/ad for this video. Right on Kayla. Just a tip to any other cat owners out there, pine pellet litter is the cheapest and best for your cat you’ll ever get. It’s not scented, it doesn’t track, and there’s no dust clogging up their insides.

[@morganalira7885]

Aaaaaaah. Snap is the best actress for ads!! 😂😂I LOVE HER ❤❤❤

[@iris8861]

A tip for you Simsie- Delete the underside of the stairs and then just put walls around the part that shows! Saves money and still looks nice

[@DVAMEKAGK]

I just started finally using brendelton bay, it’s so beautiful. I figured I’d be a good place for a large family on the 40x40 lot. But I have been lacking inspiration because I don’t understand the style yet, so thank you!!

[@Lucysrustycar]

sending love to snap rn

[@Konekoexe]

I love Snap's acting skills.

[@kaitlynadkins7790]

Snappp!!!! I love seeing the kittens but I’ve missed seeing Snap in videos! ❤❤

[@cranberrynougat]

Kayla, I'm so sorry to hear about little Snap's condition 😢Please take this with a grain of salt, but if you haven't heard, there's an injection for cats called AIM that's currently in clinical trials, I highly recommend you and all cat owners to research about it! It's a potentially huge breakthrough that a Japanese scientist, Dr. Miyazaki Toru, has made to target chronic kidney disease in cats. During test trials, cats who were expected to live as little as a week were shown to have remarkable improvements after receiving the injection. The medication is expected to be accessible by 2025! I hope all the best for Snap! 💕

[@B8llie0]

Omg her cat is so cute. (Cats r so cuteee ❤)

[@gracebrauner1713]

Every time I watch these where she gives herself a 20k budget all I can think of is how I’ve never played the sims without using motherlode or free real estate.

[@valyeet]

Omg I’m playing with this exact home right now 😂 The upstairs is horrendous idk why they’d make that much unplayable space- from the OG build not yours

[@lunasquib]

I haven’t played the sims 4 in months but watching lilsimsie I still do

[@drokusmaximus69]

I Hope snap gets better. :( I send prayers out to y’all for snap to get well soon❤️

[@halldoramariah.skowronski8731]

Very clever scale for the cats and very nice house as always

[@marianareyes7275]

you should make this a series!! doing starter homes but you can only use one pack

[@madbyinstinct]

I love today's sponsor, I'll look into getting maybe more than one as I have 5 litter boxes for my 4 cat landlords. I'm the one grateful to my cats for gracefully allowing me to be a part of their lives ❤🐈🐈‍⬛🐈🐈‍⬛❤

[@LoveBear1993]

She’s sooo adorable

[@EmilyWiz]

loved the snap feature in this

[@evilFarmin]

the litter box thing would be cool if my kitty cat didn't POOP ON THE FLOOR all the time lmao

[@beebaw99]

I love that gingham shirt sm

[@Ilia_Karamfilov]

5:50 I know the struggle. I had an ill 5 years old cat outdoors. She was my best friend, but she couldn't do it. RIP, Vickie

[@LetíciaBrandt-b9k]

omg, tonight I gave you visualization in several videos, I fell asleep watching this one and my KZbin was playing your videos all night😂

[@alicedalexandrite]

Kayla at 15:13 : With this money I am going to buy... My brain: With this treasure I summon...

[@goosecaboosee]

You should start a series where you make builds only using one pack and base game! That’d be nice for people with a limited amount of packs!

[@kikiquishal0vering34]

Thanks for the neat 🖤petivity thing. I’m going to buy one, once I’m back in my house. after Christmas 😻 3 kiddos && 3 kitties

[@overratedboomerang]

"the litterbox for the humans" You're so stinking cute!!

[@thinkabtkarma]

really needed this since i JUST got cats and dogs 😭

[@fallenaster]

the house i built for my current playthrough has an upstairs lofted bedroom and it’s so cute even if it would be very impractical irl lol

[@pyzucha76]

18:06 You now need to make a house that features debug boat. Who is with me?

[@BinTheOnion]

how did i never know about the bird feather wall art!

[@ashleyvhd]

we need a compilation of Simsie's "worst things I've ever done" rooms/builds

[@niamhmalin2327]

Build challenge: You build a starter home, but the insidee is a shell. You get to spend all the money on landscaping and the exterior. However, it also needs funtionality - bbq, shower, sleeping place - not enclosed by walls :)

[@breebrett7244]

That kids room giving major OG sims vibes 😂

[@austinwayne8137]

Aww love the Snappy feature ❤

[@jscire__872]

Sponsor section was on point ❤

[@emmatfink]

Omg Snap is the star of the ad ❤

[@wanishuk6489]

I'M SOOOOO EXCITED FOR FOR RENT. AAAA

[@BGXDProductions]

Yay Snap ❤ I haven't seen her on yt in a while I was worried

[@myrandamiller91]

About the ad: If you combine this litter box with Pretty Litter cat litter, it's even better. Pretty Litter changes color if your cat's urine contains different things, such as for UTIs, urine crystals, and other things. These both combined could definitely help with keeping updated on your cat's health!

[@delphinegilbert2552]

You should do more of this

[@elyssiabaugh2519]

The idea of weighing the litter box to get pet weight is honestly genius! I've been putting my cat in a casserole dish and weighing her with my kitchen scales 😅

[@sazsha]

haha love this comment😂

[@sunflowervibes3041]

One might say that it’s a catserole dish 😂

[@brubs2556]

Love your builds simsie, and I know you just did it for the lulz, but that kids room just made me sad lol

[@fangirlingnerd3440]

We need a Snap Plush! She is just so cute and sweet!

[@soimsha.]

I love the kids room😂 way better than the sailboat wallpaper or rainbow foam flooring🤮

[@MrMatteeG1]

This is one of my favorite lots!

[@fairyoddgamer]

Petition to bring back Stanley as your test sim! I MISS STANLEY AND HIS HOTDOG COSTUME 😂😭

[@Hello_Honey_Sweetie]

BRING STANLEY HUMPHREY BACK!!🌭

[@abrisc32]

fantastic. same house you’ve built 7,420 times

[@coolpumpkins453]

Bro at that point just stop watching her vids

[@mermaidqueen9881]

I actually love the kids room 😅

[@mckaylao.7556]

Snap is such a good model

[@NotElarie]

Good news for Snap! A scientist in Japan has trialed a new treatment for kidney disease in cats to both prevent it and treat cats that have it already! Looks so promising and will be available 2025

[@kaelyn6078]

didnt skip thru the ad just to see snap ❤

[@Namaikhan]

What if 10-unit apartment building with each unit representing a Not-So-Berry generation? 👀

[@kodalynndv143]

I feel like the Sims team went with For Rent because Landlord Life would not go over as well 😂

[@Sienna-ve1ht]

Everyone get on KZbin. Simsie has posted

[@sharonvandermerwe2009]

Good to see Snap again

[@chigangrel]

So I just moved across the country a couple weeks ago and my new neighborhood has several wild cats that everyone takes care of. The neighbors warned me they just make themselves at home where ever they like and that means in everyone's houses, so if I didn't want that happening I had to be careful when opening doors lol Three weeks later, last night I had my first intruder, a black cat with white boots and green eyes, so cute, but she did chose to return to her boyfriend after a few hours! She has a large belly though and I don't know if she's well-fed, pregnant, or just had babies and I'm thinking of bringing her to the vet just in case...

[@megancolleencasey3287]

Kayla our cats are twins and it's so cute 😭😭😭

[@Whyisitthatway]

Do a challenge where you must use the pre-made rooms and just the pre-made rooms! You can move things around and get rid of things but you cannot use anything new or move things to be outside of said room💁‍♀️

[@mxddiesvfx]

ikea child bedroom lol i love it
