Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Deutsch
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.70.84.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats & Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get To Work, Realm Of Magic, Parenthood, Vampires, Spa Day, Outdoor Retreat, Moschino Stuff, My First Pet Stuff, Spooky Stuff
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I just loaded my game and there it was
What happens when the bug occurs? All pets in my game suddenly look different
What do you expect to see? The pets should still have the same colors as when I last played
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
Suddenly all my pets look different, as an example here's Mayor Whiskers my Sims had adopted.
First in my normal game with mods, second the same game without any mods.
This change in appearance goes for all pets in my game, presets as well as pets I gave my Sims and adoptees.
I can't play without mods as up to 100% of my Sims are CC and I have too much installed to purge whqat exactly is causing this issue, but if I'm not the only one we might be able to narrow it down.

Okay, so, the cat in the pictures is the stray cat Mayor Whiskers, isn't it? He is supposed to be black and white. So what you are seeing in your game right now, is how it is supposed to look like. You must've had some cc that messed with the textures of the animal coats. So this is not a bug, it's more like the opposite!
But, this can easily be fixed. If you have your sims go to a mirror and choose "Change Sim" (NOT plan outfit) you can then freely edit your pets as if you were in full cas mode. So go to change sim, and choose the correct coats for your pets

@crinricthi, this is LoopyDunes191's new account since my email was hacked and I couldn't get it back, no it's not been solved and I have simply too many mods and stuff installed to try and find out what is causing the problem. My mods folder is 11GB
I have however discovered that I actually can't change things back, all coat colors seem to be defaulting to the same skin, for cats it's the plain brown one you see in the picture, and for dogs it seems to be a dark brown and black coat. But this only goes for already existing pets, newly generated ones by the game as well as created by me work fine.
Since no one else seems to be having this problem it might be something with my files instead :/
