How to Tame an Ocelot in Minecraft

Last updated
Have you ever wandered through the lush jungles of Minecraft and spotted a sleek, cautious ocelot? If you’re wondering how you can make one of these wild cats your trusty companion, you’re in the right place!
Let’s dive into the steps on how to bring an ocelot into your Minecraft family.
Quick Guide to Taming an Ocelot
Taming an ocelot in Minecraft isn’t like taming most pets, but it’s certainly an adventure. First things first, you’ll need to have a few fish on hand – raw salmon or raw cod work best. Make sure you’ve caught these fish with a fishing rod from any water source in your Minecraft world.
Next, approach the ocelot very slowly. Ocelots are shy, so any sudden movements will scare them off. Once the ocelot notices you, stop moving and wait. Eventually, the ocelot will come to you. When it does, continually feed it fish until little hearts appear above its head, signaling that it’s been tamed. Congratulations, you now have a new jungle friend!
