Electronic Arts announced today that it has made The Sims 2 Pets available for mobile phones. People can now take their Sims around with them, adopt, train and play with a pet all on their mobile phone . The game allows players to adopt a puppy, teach it tricks, and do other things they would normally do with normal dogs (excluding talking to it and petting it). A well-trained puppy will delight your Sim with surprising and amusing antics, and a happier Sim will benefit from increased earnings and improved status. A neglected puppy can shred papers, devour houseplants, soil the carpet, and make your Sim’s life miserable. The Sims 2 Pets is now available through a number of wireless carriers around North America. You can find availability information at www.eamobile.com.
