2008-07-22: Updated to v1.1b. Teens and Elders can clean up used catnip.
2008-06-27: Updated to v1.1a. (Up to IKEA Home Stuff Pack)
A whole bunch of objects (including 2 IKEA single beds) were added to really enable chew/scratch interaction for small dogs and cats.
Missing "clean" tree in OBJf of Art Nouveau Double Bed was fixed.
2008-03-15: Updated to v1.1.
2 FreeTime dining chairs, 4 Glamour Life Stuff objects were added.
Also fixes a FT bug in GLS dining chair that disabled pie menu for human.
Now combined into one file for less clutter. Please remove previous version from your Downloads folder.
EAxis failed to fully enable pet interactions for some objects from various EPs/SPs.
Some objects are completely disabled for pets, others only partially enabled.
For example, pets can't sleep on GLS Luxury bed or Seasons Racecar bed in pre-AL games. They can't chew/scratch Celebration dining chairs, either.
This mod will enable all pet interactions for those forgotten Maxis objects up to Apartment Life.
The previous version was split up into tiny packets by each EP/SP.
As of v1.1, they're combined into a single file for less clutter. If you were using previous version of this fix, remove these 5 files from your Downloads folder.

LdDarcy_PetEnabledObjectsFix_EP5_SNS.package
LdDarcy_PetEnabledObjectsFix_EP6_BV.package
LdDarcy_PetEnabledObjectsFix_SP4_CS.package
This mod now supports GLS objects as well. You don't have to get jfade's GLS objects fix.
EAxis, in their infinite wisdom, finally got around to enable pet interactions for GLS dining chair (Banquet Chair by Well Bred and Co.) in FreeTime, at the cost of disabling human interaction. Words fail me. *Headdesk*
This mod will fix this abysmal stupidity as well.

Even though chew/scratch function appeared in pie menu, small dogs and cats couldn't actually chew/scratch some objects. (Large dogs are not affected.) They just whine as if something is blocking their route. As of v1.1a, almost all seating objects are actually chewable/scratchable for small dogs and cats.
The one bedside of Art Nouveau Double Bed was missing "clean" tree in OBJf used by maids. Sometimes maids may forget to make bed. Also fixed in v1.1a.
Teens and Elders can clean up used catnip.
List of objects fixed by this mod: See RTFM inside.
Installation:
Place in your My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Downloads folder.

About Me
I have my own section at MATY now. Visit DarcyLand for some more goodies that are not available in MTS2.
Check this MATY thread for AL compatibility of my hacks. All my mods are now confirmed to be compatible with AL, or updated to AL.
Recently I'm getting a lot of PMs asking how to update various custom objects like fridges or computers up to FreeTime.
I wrote a tutorial for updating custom fridges and computers to FreeTime. For other types of objects, go read this MATY thread where a lot of information is gathered. A similar thread for AL is here.
==============================================================================
Basically, you can do whatever you want with my creations, as long as they stay free. You can upload them to other free sites, include them in lots or Sims, modify them if you want.
Please make a link back to my original MTS2 threads, in case I update my past creations. If you're reuploading my mods to other sites, please keep them up to date. Check my MTS2 journal for updates of past creations..
My only 2 restrictions are:
- Do NOT upload them to PAY sites (including TSR) and Exchange.
- Don't claim them as your own.
