Why Players Install

  • Never lose a best friend: Tamed cats drop a Cat Collar into their owner's inventory on death; Use it on a block to revive your cat. No more needing to leave your pets at home for safety.
  • Bonding that matters: Petting and scratching your cat (sneak + right click with an open hand), feeding them, and sticking together deepen your bond and unlock stronger companionship.
  • Unique companions: Cats have individual health and movement traits, a class, a favorite food, and optional gender.
  • A home of their own: Link your cat to a Cat Bed and choose how they spend their day.
  • Everyday care: Keep your companion well fed, stock a Food Bowl, and discover their favorite meal.
  • Class abilities: Naiad, Guardian, Witchling, Dreamer, Lucky - powers scale with affinity.
  • Expressive behavior: Cats emote based on weather, time, and their bond with their owner. They react to the world, teleport smartly, show affection, and follow when tempted with food.
  • Multiplayer friendly: Optional friendly-fire protection and owner-only breeding.

Getting Started

Vanilla cats automatically become Improved Cats, preserving their appearance, ownership, and supported existing state.

Tame wild cats using Ancient Cod or Ancient Salmon. These are rare drops from their corresponding fish mobs and may appear among randomly selected fisherman trades. Ordinary cod and salmon fishing catches also have a default 5% chance to become their matching Ancient Fish. Fish drops and randomly selected fisherman trades remain available. Vanilla fish taming can also be enabled in configuration.

Once tamed:

  • Sneak + interact with an empty hand to pet your cat.
  • Sneak + interact with a Training String to inspect and copy their stats.
  • Feed them supported raw foods to restore hunger and discover their favorite food.
  • Craft a Cat Bed when they deserve a cozy corner of their own.

Five Classes, Five Kinds of Magic

  • Naiad: Helps a nearby owner recover with a short regeneration effect when their health is low. Builds affinity in water and under the open sky.
  • Guardian: Grants a short resistance effect after its owner takes damage and glows when detecting nearby creepers or phantoms.
  • Witchling: Offers witch-themed gifts. Builds affinity around brewing stands and through qualifying owner status effects.
  • Dreamer: Stores experience and shares it through Bottles o' Enchanting.
  • Lucky: Gives a nearby owner Luck I.

Abilities have their own conditions, ranges, and cooldowns. These cats are companions—not a new melee-combat army.

Companions Beyond the Overworld

Nether Cats

Red-coated cats with orange eyes, found naturally in Crimson Forests without requiring a village.

Nether Cats are immune to fire and lava. An eligible following Nether Cat also grants its owner Fire Resistance.

End Cats

Black-coated cats with purple eyes, found naturally in outer-End highlands, midlands and barrens—not the central island.

An eligible following End Cat prevents Endermen from becoming angry solely because its owner looks at them. It can also grant three seconds of Slow Falling during a fall, with a shared sixty-second owner cooldown.

Gaze protection does not stop retaliation after attacks or clear existing anger.

Both types grant owner benefits only while living, loaded, tamed, in Follow mode, in the owner's dimension, and not manually sitting. There is no distance limit, but unloaded cats grant nothing and never force chunks to load.

Dimensional types are separate from the five classes. Existing cats remain ordinary, and travelling through portals does not change a cat's type.

Cat spawn eggs create Nether Cats in Nether Crimson Forests and End Cats in eligible outer-End habitats. Elsewhere, they create ordinary cats. This includes dispenser eggs and egg-created kittens.

Hungry Cats, Happy Cats

Tamed cats have hunger, and food now supports their health through regeneration rather than healing them instantly.
