Talk:Ocelot

But what does it do?
Do cats attack mobs like Wolves do, or are they just vanity pets? Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me if this was the case because cats in real life are kind of like that. Cobalt32 00:43, 27 January 2012 (UTC)


 * Well, as of the new snapshot, 12w05a/b, they can ward off creepers. GhengopelALPHA –The preceding undated comment was added on 21:18, 2 February 2012. Please sign your posts with


 * They don't attack anything, except apparently Chickens. It doesn't happen to me... but they say it does. They don't attack creepers either, to the best of my knowledge. Creepers just get scared by them. Numbermaniac 06:17, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

Cats try to dig under fences
In my 12w08a world, I've noticed that next to a chicken coop, my cat tries to 'dig' under the fence (dirt particles appear). Has anyone else noticed this?

--Pi399 04:40, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Are you sure he wasn't sprinting? 67.174.105.246 07:19, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

Well, I'm not certain, but the cat was at a 90-degree angle to the coop, and did this multiple times. I do not think the cat was sprinting.

--Pi399 18:20, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

The cat was probably trying to sprint to the chicken behind the fence, but failed to acknowledge that the fence was in its way and keeping it from reaching the chicken. Cobalt32 18:47, 25 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Cobalt32 is right. The cat isn't digging; it's sprinting towards the chicken, even though there's a fence in between. Numbermaniac 07:54, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

The helpful pet
I put cats out side and saw creepers but they did not want to come. I got wolves but they did not attack the creepers. good thing I had cats. XD –Preceding unsigned comment was added by Academytrial (Talk&#124;Contribs) 12:59, 19 May 2012. Please sign your posts with

Ocelot Spawning
On the page, it states they only spawn on Easy or higher. Well, I was on Peaceful, and I actually saw one walking around. I don't know if this may be just a glitch, but its something for sure. Someone please look into this. –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 98.244.65.247 (Talk) 01:46, 28 May 2012. Please sign your posts with

anyone know why creepers fear cats
I've played the game for a long time and i just want to know why creepers fear cats. Riothegod 23:03, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Because frankly cats don't do anything helpful IRL, may as well make them the bane of one of the most aggravating mobs in the game. Cobalt32 14:06, 13 June 2012 (UTC)

that's not true.cats usually kill small pests irl like mice and roaches.its that or I have pretty awesome cats.cats do kill the chickens don't they?

Memory loss
I left the game while being in the middle of an ocean with 4 tamed cats, I again joined the game a few days later and the cats don't seem to recognize me (they don't follow me, but wander in random directions). I can't get them to follow. Could you guys please try it out to confirm this bug, so that it could be added to the "list of bugs"?

Please try quitting the game and rejoining the game for at least 3 times, while in the middle of the ocean (not necessarily in the middle, but far away from land) without a boat. I had 4 tamed cats with me, but 1 should be fine to have the same effect.

Rarity of Cats
Is there any evidence behind the "Siamese cats are fairly rare." statement? Is the rarity actually in the code or is it completely random. If anything, I've found that tabby cats are more rare. If it isn't actually in the code and this statement turns out to be a "punching leaves yields fewer saplings" myth, I request it to be removed from the page. -Levy 21:31, 13 June 2012 (UTC)


 * The MCP 6.2 decompilation (1.2.5) isn't perfectly clear, but it looks like the types of cat are chosen with equal probabilities. -- Orthotope 07:47, 14 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Fixed. Clear enough for me.

Teleportation bug
Today two of my cats and one of my dogs teleported to me (after i told them to sit) while I was in a ravine, then almost a second later fell into lava and died.....FIX YOUR GAME JEB!!! lol, but, seriously, this is a major bug and annoyance. ZeCraftyMiner 00:51, 18 June 2012 (UTC)

Taming Ocelots with dogs present.
I got the idea that if I have cats and dogs I'd be harder to kill.but sense I didn't have any fish I told someone on a server and they said the dogs kept killing the ocelots. is it a bug because I looked through the wiki for it and didn't find anything about it. though IRL cats can be trained to like dogs and the other way around. anyone wanna test this and confirm?

well sorta, dogs will only attack if you hurt it Riothegod 02:50, 30 July 2012 (UTC)

My ocelots are freezing.
So I'm in the jungle biome, and I see an ocelot, which is pretty big news to me because I never see ocelots. I go up to the ocelot, right-click on it with a raw fish, and nothing happens. I try attacking it, and I can't touch it (it doesn't turn red, it doesn't run) and I just start digging at the block past the ocelot. Why is this happening? Is it a new bug?

How do you change a baby ocelot into a kitten?????
my little brother was playing the game and he was taming kittens. well i tried to but it wont work they just won't change. though whenever my little brother tries it always works. HELP!--68.150.154.56 01:57, 4 November 2012 (UTC)


 * If you were taming the baby ocelot in an enclosed space of less than 7x7, it won't work. It has to be able to roam in an area larger than 7x7. Numbermaniac 07:46, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Not able to tame?
I don't know why, but I can't tame ocelots in creative mode. And that's that.

-Skystep


 * You can't bury them in a ditch of any sort. They must be in an area of at least 7x7, otherwise they cannot be tamed. Numbermaniac 07:47, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

My bug sort of goes along with this; when I try to tame an ocelot by feeding it fish, it goes into love mode. I've gone through 9 fish with one ocelot. This is with 1.3.1.50.33.201.33 17:47, 24 February 2013 (UTC)Aaron


 * You may need several fish. Feeding it 9 and not having it tamed is just unlucky. If you find another one, try it again. It will show love hearts, until it turns into a cat. Numbermaniac 06:47, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

I kinda hve this problem....I hve Minecraft 1.4.7,and,ocelots dunt seem 2 exist anymore.Only when I spawn them,and,they wunt turn into cats!:c                                                                     X3MinecraftWolfLuverx3 06:41, 1 March 2013 (EST)Jennica


 * They won't spawn in superflat, and they only spawn in jungles. I don't get why you can't tame them. Make sure they have at least a 7x7 space to roam, and make sure they are coming towards you first. Numbermaniac 01:54, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

HELP!
My cat wont sit,move,or tp to me. what should i do? Go4cyclones 16:17, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Ocelots turning green with no heads
An ocelot can turn into a cat as you know but when mine did they we green and had NO HEADS!!! IT IS CRAZY AND TRUE by avalon678


 * Sounds like you have a broken texture pack. -- Orthotope 22:19, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Ocelots seem to only spawn with "spawn monsters" on
On my server, both vanilla and craftbukkit, ocelots only spawn when I turn on "spawn monsters". This includes 1.4.5 Bmenrigh 02:59, 14 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Ocelots are added to the hostile monster spawn list, rather than the passive animal one. This appears to be the intended behavior, though you'd have to ask Mojang why they decided to do it that way. -- Orthotope 03:04, 14 December 2012 (UTC)

Minecart glitch doesn't happen anymore.
The article states that when you put a cat into a minecart, it causes this massive image glitch. I tested this in 13w06a, and it doesn't happen there. I added a comment due to this, asking if anyone could test to see if this still happens in 1.4.7. Would someone please be able to do that? Thanks. Numbermaniac 07:53, 14 February 2013 (UTC)

Cats not killing chickens?
Hi,

My pet orange cat doesn't seem to kill chickens that go nearby. Does anyone know why? I'm using 13w07a. Numbermaniac 01:54, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

History Table?
What happened to the history table on this page? why is it just all plain text? Numbermaniac 06:15, 18 February 2013 (UTC)


 * The History template was not made when most articles started years ago. Because of this, there's still a few article history sections that don't use the template, notably articles that predate the template or new articles that really never got it. Over time, a few users have cleaned up article history sections.  06:23, 18 February 2013 (UTC)


 * Oh ok. I did not know that. Thanks. Numbermaniac 07:52, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
