Catz 5 and Dogz 5 are two great virtual Petz games - now they combine for even more fun! Watch and laugh as Dogz and Catz live on your computer desktop - you'll raisethem as they grow, play, and learn together. When they grow up, many will start families of their own. Tasty Treatz are one way to reward your Petz for good behavior - just don't overdo it. Use the spray bottle to keep particularly naughty Petz in line. Your Petz will run away if they feel neglected. Please adopt only those Petz you're sure you want and take good care of them!

Summary: THE Best Pet Game EVER!!!!
Comment: I'm 11 and have been a Petz fan since I was in kindergarten. I got Catz 3 and loved it!!! Much later on, I bought Catz 5. Ther newest computer we own,which we have had for a few years, came with Dogz 5. I loved it! I had not played with it in a year and recently re-discovered it. I have so many cool playscenes I made myself,and so many cool breeds and Petz I have downloaded online.
Cons:
-For some reason my game crashes A LOT! When it does this, I have to re-do whatever I just did(like turning off power without saving in a video game)
- Petz run away when you do not play the game! When I came back after not playing it for a year, almost ALL of my Petz and my sister's(who's almost 9 years old)ran away! You can get your Petz to return by opening your 'Runaway Petz' file and your 'Adopted Petz' file in two different screens and drag and drop runaways to adopted Petz. When you start your Petz 5 game, either A) Some of the Petz have come back B) Some are in your list but say 'Runaway'. Check to see if you can re-adopt them at the Adoption Center. If not, click on your Runaway Petz in your pet list and try the process again. It works for me!
- The Playscene Editor has some minor glitches in it.
-If you take out the present box and put the bottom half away without putting the bubble machine in it and lid on top, they'll be stuck in that scene permanently! I think you can fix this,but I don't know how.Same thing if you put the paint can away without the brush.
Pros:
-MUCH,MUCH,MUCH BETTER than Nintendogs or the DS Petz games!!!!!!
-Very addicting; you can never run out of things to do!
-You can make your own playscenes very easily.
-Your Petz can have litters of puppies or kittens, which you(and the mother,of course) raise them from newborn to adult, instead of just puppy/kitten to adult.
-Educational,but not too much like a real pet(no shedding,poop-scooping,etc.)
This is an all-around awesome game, anyone ages 5 and up(yes, that means teens and adults) can enjoy it! Buy it!

Summary: memories are better than reality
Comment: I remembered playing Petz3 years ago...
I'd been pining for a puppy and, rather than battle my mother once more, opted to take the path of least resistance, and got Petz5.
....
It's fun for the first day or so, but eventually they start to really grate on your nerves.
The pets get jealous when you scritch another pet and will attack one another, they steal each other's food (even when you have multiple bowls out), and will sometimes hiss or bark and growl at the cursor (granted, I had just given them a bath, but come on!).
Parents: if your kid wants a pet, get them this software.
It will either change theirs minds, or enchant them!
I loved it when I was a little girl, and it's amusing for a while.
The long-term value is minimal, but I still somehow find myself wanting to play it a few times a year.
There's an itch it scratches, for sure and certain.
So.. Go for it.
Just... don't expect to be blown away.
on the upside for parents: no foul or explicit language, (aside from tussles over squeaky toys) no fighting, no shooting, no monsters, no blood, yes cuteness, yes puppies and yes kittens (with no shedding or allergies), and the kids get to learn a little bit about what comes with having a pet.

Summary: Absolutely fun!
Comment: This is perhaps the best game for those who can't have an animal in the house. The sounds are wonderful and I just can't seem to get enough of it. They run away when you use the spray a few times when they are being naughty since they know what's coming. There are some glitches like the cat's bowl moving when they're eating and some small things. Looking past all that, this is one game you have to get for those who wish to have a cat, or a dog or both since the cats and dogs behave like real ones.

Summary: Love it!
Comment: This game is the best game i have ever gotten! I've had this game for a while now but it's still so much fun! I think it's the best game out of all the petz games. You get to have dogz and catz! There is lots of great items in this game too. The newborns that you can breed are sooo cute! You should definately get this game! I don't know why those other people who rated it one star don't like. It's fantastic! You should definately get this game!
