Placing a pet to my home?

Hey (Again)

If i want my cat to live in my house and want her to sit on a bed for example, or sleep there, how do i do that or can it even be done?

Right now if i place a cat in the bed, she just does the normal routine she does when following me.

    Unfortunately there's no AI attached to them so when you place them, they're just there in that one pose. It does seem like some passive animations still happen though, as I witnessed a friends dragon frog thing breathing fire.

    To make sure I understand your question correctly: you're asking how to set your pet to use a certain emote (e.g., sit and stay seated)?

    Unfortunately, there is no way to do that. Pets placed in the house will go through their usual idle animations.

    Really, just be glad the cat has good idles. A lot of the older dogs just stand in the same position, panting. It's pretty creepy. XD
    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    (Signature idea shamelessly stolen from Abeille.)

    Yes, like sit..

    BAH!! There is clearly some need for improvment..

    Like letting to choose a pose for pet or mount..

    Usable bed, drawers..

    Make a routine for pet so it can roam arpound your house.

    They stay in one place but at least cats are animated and use poses.
    mounts do nothing.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    So pets and mounts DONT wander around? This update gets less and less appealing :(

    Is there any utility or is it just a stationary cosmetic? I'd at least hoped to see pets wandering the house, mounts moving around the yard and the assistant pottering around like a House Karl...

    For now I just dont get how it can be any fun at all

    Meh, if not roaming around, i would have hoped they at least gave pets an option to make them stay in one pose like they do all around tamriel. Cats sleeping on the bed, licking clean and so forth.

    I do hope they will improve these things.. I mean it IS really awesome to make and furnish homes but they really just feel like animated postcards until theres more interactivivity.
