📖 Wiki / Full Feature Guide → https://cozysimprovedmobs.netlify.app/
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: Randomized stats, class type, favorite food to discover, gender (optional), and class.
- 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.
How It Works
- Automatic upgrade: Vanilla cats become Improved Cats (keeps name, variant, owner, collar color).
- Custom taming: Use Ancient Cod/Salmon (rare drops from cod/salmon or fisherman trades). Vanilla fish taming can be enabled in config.
- Stat inspection: Sneak + right-click a tamed cat with a Training String to view stats.
Classes & Abilities
- Naiad: Short burst of regeneration (with cooldown) when you're low on health; affinity grows in water and sunlight.
- Guardian: Short burst of resistance (with cooldown) when you take damage; glows near creepers or phantoms.
- Witchling: Gifts potion items; affinity grows near brewing stands or with status effects.
- Dreamer: Stores XP and delivers Bottles o' Enchanting.
- Lucky: Keeps Luck I on you while nearby.
Items
- Ancient Cod / Ancient Salmon (and cooked variants)
- Training String
- Cat Collar

If you remove this mod and then load your world, cats that were converted/managed by this mod may disappear permanently because the custom entity no longer exists without the mod installed.

- If you already removed the mod and loaded the world, recovery may only be possible from a backup
