Mine started after I purchased and downloaded Nifty Knitting, actually. Terrible way to get people to buy more packs

Same as me I had to disable the pack I had 3 Sims stuck outside the showers in the oasis gym and freezing in front of sinks.
August 2020
Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.65.77.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All Expansions except Famous. All Game Packs except Dine Out Stuff Packs: Knitting, TinyLiving, First Pet, Toddler Stuff, Kids Room, Romantic Garden, Cool Kitchen, Perfect Patio, Luxury Living
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play game, generally within the first five minutes, character freezes, then even if you resetsim, or try to cancel actions, Sim stays frozen, or unfreezes and refreezes.
What happens when the bug occurs? Sim will freeze.
What do you expect to see? Sim will not freeze.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
I have my Origins account on both a Predator Gaming Laptop and a Desktop Windows Gaming PC, it occurs on both. I have tried deleting all game files and Origin and reloading each. Also tired Repairing game files. Never used any Mod's on either computer. It is only the character freezing, I can interact with game and ask sim to do things, but they do not move.

@leooftheyear I finally got around to test your save and i can see the freezing in that household. I switched to another and the game seemed fine then.
It might have to do with the cats. Can you maybe give them up for adoption for testing purposes to see if you have less freezing (on a backup). Just for science.
There's a thread on that here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/NEEDS-INPUT-CD-Simulation-Lag-with-Pets/m-p/8201357

Nope, this household is one single sim unmodded. And on my laptop household, it’s one sim and one pet. In both situations only the humanoid sim freezes.

I removed the cats from both files and it still froze, I have a cat in a different save and it doesn't have the same issues. Any other suggestions?
