Disappearing Cow/Chickens Bug
Has anyone else experienced a bug where their cow or chickens disappear after traveling away from their home lot/playing a different household for awhile? Ever since the latest EP released, I frequently load my household, only to discover that my cow is gone. The shed is empty, but Zzzz VFX continue to play, as if the cow were asleep inside. Clearly, she is NOT present, given that I have the option to "Purchase Animal...". (Yes, I checked my Household Inventory and my Sim's personal Inventory - the cow is not there).
I've also been experiencing issues with chickens. If I travel away from my home lot in Henford-on-Bagley, or switch to playing a different household, my chickens are sometimes gone when I return home/resuming playing my original household. I have a fox alarm installed and I do not have the Wild Foxes lot challenge, so it's unlikely that foxes are the culprit. I take good care of my chickens, so I see no reason why they would have left due to inadequate care.
