Thank you for the compliments. I am working on making some objects for him as well as his harness and blue raincoat.

I have posted some screenshots of the progress of it here. It still looks more like a helmet, and I might need to use Blender to soften it up to make it look better.

Thank you. Right now, Lola Belle currently owns Maru in my Bridgeport neighborhood.

Thank you for the compliments.

Once there are more pet sliders available, I might go back and make a more accurate version alongside this one.

I may upload his house after I get the objects done. Is there anyone who would like his house? I have his book, which has a blueprint of the house. I only made it for the photo shoot, but I will be more than happy to work on it and upload it for people who want it.

There is one problem that I've noticed in the blueprints.
There is no bedroom labeled anywhere. I'm assuming this means that Maru's owner either didn't want to draw out the bedroom or uses a futon/folding bed sofa. I am not sure how I would add this to the sims game since neither of those exist in the game.

For the table, it seems lower than most tables in the game (around the same size as the coffee tables in Sims 3). I can easily make this by making it shiftable.

Sugichaco actually made a japanese futon if you're interested. I don't know if it's updated for pets but one could easily fix that using granthes's rig fix. Here's the link

Thank you!
It looks like I will have a lot of space in the computer room, so I can add it there.

This is awesome, and I don't even have Sims 3, haha. I'm surprised this wasn't done sooner! Maru's such a cutie. Can't wait to use it... one day. :P
