I want to be able to be a colonizing warlord who also lives with 20 cats, Is perpetually horny. and keeps lighting his house on fire.

Dwarf Fortress is the closest thing I’ve played to this
Also, a tremendous game. A work of art!
If you can stand it, yes
20 cats, not 200 cats.
At some point in the past decade they introduced the option to geld animals, now you can stop the cat explosion before it starts!
Rimworld
Yes this is literally just rimworld
It doesn’t quite have everything you were asking for but you might like Space Haven. No cats, but you’re trying to keep your small group of spacefarers alive and your spaceship afloat. A lot of the game is resource management, managing faction relations, and doing small scale tactics as you fight against aliens, robots, and raiders. It has some of the small scale control over your spacefarers similar to Sims, but allows you the freedom to be a group of roaming mercenaries, set up your own little outpost on an asteroid to offer services, or raid everyone in sight.
It’s still in early access, but it has fairly active development with several updates having been pushed out this month alone.
Your likely best bet is whatever you’d call the genre RimWorld is in. RimWorld itself could probably scratch that itch if you up the number of colonies you can have in the settings and add a few mods that expand the world map-level gameplay.
Rimworld feels like my kind of game but everytime I watch its trailer on steam I think “oh maybe it isn’t”.
Mostly the guns and stuff make it seem like it might not be the kind of game I expect.
Rimworld is a game that you get to play in the way you want to play. It allows you to choose the pace of your game and the difficulty by allowing you to choose a “storyteller” that determines the events that happen in your game and how often. You won’t ever be able to turn off combat, but you can make it less of a problem.
I haven’t dug my teeth into it as much as I should have yet, so I can’t tell you which parts of your requirements are and aren’t fulfilled. But have you had a look at Kenshi? There’s also a sequel on the horizon.
Go. Outside.
I’m outside right now thank you very much.
