How Do You Tame an Ocelot in Minecraft? Find Out Here!
Last updated
Ever wondered how to make a wild jungle cat your friend in the world of Minecraft? Let’s dive into the exciting process of taming an ocelot!
So, you’re adventuring through the lush jungle biomes and spot a sleek, spotted creature bounding through the underbrush – it’s an ocelot! But how exactly do you tame one of these elusive felines? Keep reading to find out.
Getting an Ocelot to Trust You
First things first, you need some raw fish. Ocelots are big fans of raw salmon or cod, which you can catch with a fishing rod in any body of water. With fish in hand, approach the ocelot quietly.
It’s crucial to be patient. If you move too fast or make sudden movements, the ocelot will get spooked and run away. Stand still with the fish equipped, and wait for the ocelot to come to you. When it does, feed it the fish by right-clicking on the ocelot (or tapping the ‘use’ button on mobile and console versions).
And Just Like That, You’ve Got a Cat Companion
After feeding the ocelot enough fish, hearts will appear above its head, signaling it has trusted you enough to tame. Congratulations, you’ve just tamed an ocelot! Your new feline friend won’t exactly follow your orders like a tamed wolf would, but it won’t run away from you anymore, and it’ll scare away creepers.
Remember, ocelots have a mind of their own. While they won’t sit on command like cats, having one around can add a fun element of surprise to your Minecraft adventures.
