Petz 4

Catz 4 and Dogz 4, collectively Petz 4, are the fourth games in the Petz series, originally released on September 28th, 1999. They were published and distributed by Mindscape and were the last Petz games to be developed by PF Magic.

As with Petz II and Petz 3, installing both Catz 4 and Dogz 4 would combine the games and allow the player full access to all features and breeds.

They were followed by Petz 5 in 2002.
