Bop Tiger Beat – Win The Sims 3 Pets

Okay, I can’t say for sure which version of Pets it is – but I’d have to guess it is the Xbox 360 version as that is what picture they used.  Also, no word on if it is limited to a certain region.  Only bit of info I can share with you is that the contest ends on November 4th.
