Pet carriers and needs/skills bars

[lucythewitch]

As title suggests, i was wondering how putting pet in carrier works in terms of pet's needs. Do they drop just like regular sim while online? Or once in carrier, needs and skills bars just freeze?

I was searching for answer on this quite some time but i haven't found anything about it neither on forum or official page
And additional question is, does only owner let pet out carrier? Or any roommate can?

Almost certain that pet needs do not change while in their crate. Only owner of each individual crate can "release" that pet inside.
