Occasionally, cats will bring back a present while the game is still running, which can contain rare items. Unlike dogs, cats cannot be taken out or taught tricks, but they can get along with other pets and played around with via toys. One of the most notable additions to Nintendogs + Cats is the ability to adopt cats, which come in three different types. Jack Russell Terrier (without obtaining the Jack Russell Book).There are new breeds in this installment: It also makes different stylistic choices than its prequel environments in Nintendogs + Cats no longer have white borders (giving them a fuller appearance), and thanks to the inclusion of Mii characters, owners can now coexist in the environment with their pets.

Like corruption with save states on other systems, I would recommend only using the “Add” and “Shift” tools, not the “Replace” tool.Development Main article: Nintendogs + Cats/Beta If you’re getting frequent crashes, you may have to go higher than my recommended range, but corrupting higher than in that range tends to produce results that aren’t quite as good. A good range is 1-500 for your corrupt every xth byte. These can be unstable, and will crash when you advance to another level. Because almost everything has already loaded, the only things that will corrupt are your character and other objects, once they move, music, and while you move on further in a level you’ll see some graphics, and the ability to collide with the floor corrupt. It's best to create the save state as soon as the gameplay starts so corruption can still show. This method limits the types of corruptions you see, but tends to be easier and less crash prone than standard corruption. In this method, you’re creating a save state during gameplay so that the only corruptions that are happening are happening in real time. This is what you should try when the first method fails.
