Exploring Minecraft is fun, but it can be more enjoyable with a partner. If you want someone to accompany you on your adventure or wait for you at home, introduce yourself to the world of pet ownership, as cats offer people this companionship.
You want to learn how to tame a cat? The process starts with knowing what type of cat you have. Are they an indoor or outdoor cat? Knowing this will help you know the things you’ll need, and how best to go about taming your feline companion.
How to find a cat in Minecraft?
Before we can find a cat to tame and make into our pet, we need to get one. Thankfully, finding cats will not be a challenge – they spawn in villages with at least one villager and four beds. Catching them is the difficult part, but just getting there shouldn’t be too bad.
In order to tame a cat in Minecraft all you need is:
Raw Cod or Raw Salmon
To feed your cat, you will need a fish. Raw cod or salmon can be obtained by fishing. To get started, create a fishing rod with the following recipe:
To increase your chances at catching a fish, find a body of water with plenty of open space. Once you found one, equip the fishing rod in your hot bar. Cast the line into it and wait for the bobber to move or sink to initiate an action. Wait until you see bubbles come up from the water and then wait for it to become closer to the fishing line. When it seems as if you can no longer see it, then jerk your rod sharply so that the bobber is dragged under water quickly. When the fish bites, reel back on the fishing line as far as possible; if you’re successful they’ll bite and appear in your inventory.

How do you tame a cat in Minecraft?
To tame a cat in Minecraft, find a stray cat and then switch to the fish from your inventory. Slowly approach the cat to use it as leverage for the raw fish, and continue feeding it until hearts appear above its head. These hearts represent a successful taming. You may need to feed it multiple times in order for the process to be complete.
Step-by-Step Guide(with Pictures):
Here is a step-by-step guide to taming cats in Minecraft:
- Step-1: Search for a cat
You’ll need to find a stray cat in the wild.
- Step-2: Switching to the fish
When fishing, always have a fish stored in your inventory to use when you need it.
- Step-3: Slowly follow the cat
Most pets will be afraid and run away from players at first, but it is crucial to approach a pet slowly so they are not scared off.
- Step-4: Use the fish
To tame a cat, feed it raw fish until the heart icons appear above its head. The cat will need to be fed multiple times before it likes you enough to accept fish. Once the cat has eaten enough, the hearts below that animal will disappear and they’ll gain a collar.
