>>Needs PetAI to function!<<
Russian translation provided by Mamoru Mondai.
Mod Showcase by Julius van Vern.
French translation by Cendar.
Compatibility:
- Primitive Survival (cats can be fed raw fish fillets)
Small mod that introduces cats as tameable pets. The credit vor the catmodel belongs completely to Kerrech, as I merely adopted it and made some small modifications. I added a small in game guide on how to tame a wild cat.
Once tamed, it should prove useful against lower tier drifters.

Is there a way to config the cats to not be scared of my tamed wolves. It's hard to feed everyone if the cats run away hissing because the dogs scare them since they follow me.
I simply copied the code from the vanilla grow behavior for pets, so they should be affected by worldsettings like vanilla creatures. So after about 17 in-game days with default settings they should mature. I am going to do a quick check before releasing the next version. PeterSanderson
Thats definitely a bug, I am going to fix this for the next version. All cats should be terrifying for drifters. ThePionier
Hi Gerste
I noticed that after the new update, the cats no longer scare away the drifters, or are they no longer afraid of the cats?
At least the wild cats and the ocelots don't seem to keep the drifters away, I don't know about the domestic cats.
Thanks for the reply, Gerste. If it's 408 in-game hours, do you mean 17 in game days?
Would that be affected by /time calendarspeedmul? That's set to 0.2 on our server. It has been two in game months and the kittens have not grown.
Kittens take 408 ingame hours to grow up.
Some of the cat textures might change because they now became exclusive to wild cats.
With the newest update, there are now european wild cats, ozelots, servals and house cats. House cats can be purchased from traders, the rest of them spawns in various regions in the wild. All new cat variants are tameable too.
Apart from the texture glitching, the cats from previous versions should be fine. PeterSanderson
How much in game time does it take for a kitten to grow into an adult cat?
Also, I noticed updating to the most recent version changed an adult orange tabby to an all white cat. Will cats from previous releases have any issues?
Yeah thats right. The survivalgoods trader has a chance to have a cat in stock for 6-10 gears. Maimessu
With the latest update removing natural spawns, does that mean cats are only obtainable via traders now? And if so, which one(s)? So that I may keep a look out. =3
Don't know if it is due to this mod or the PetAI one, but cat attack noises seem to be "spawning" at player position, instead of the cat`s.
I tamed a kitten. The next day it walked into my burning pit kiln and died. Does the AI not see fire as bad!? Worse thing was that I didn't get as much meat out of it as I put into it... 😒
I love the idea of only being able to get cats from traders. I hope that feature makes it in!
I had no clue this could happen. This is sooo cool 😲 TheShazbot
I will look at the cat carcasses in the next update BlueFuryDragon PeterSanderson
My kitten crawled into a pine tree hollow added by Primitive Survival to hide during a temporal storm. Not sure if this is an intended interaction, but it is cute as hell! 😊

The cats need to know to stay away from Wildcrafts berry bushes as the kittens die screaming! I have also seen the giant pile of bones after carving up a kitten murdered by bushes from Wildcrafts mod.
I don't know if it's been mentioned yet, but I found a dead cat, butchered the remains, and was left with a Medium carcass rather than small. Should likely be small for adult cats, tiny for kittens
Gerste
Thank you for your feedback signal!
And the tip with the other types of food :)
I think it's a good idea that the cats are only available through the dealer, that makes the whole thing a little more exciting.
Maybe a compromise would be good that can be set via the modconfig whether the cats in the world spawn naturally or are only available through the dealer. So every player can decide for himself how he likes it
Thanks a lot.
Looks like I forgot to add the Primitive Survival compatibility for kittens. You can feed them with poultice, redmeat or bushmeat though :) ThePionier
Gerste
Somehow I can only tame adult cats, I can't give baby cats a fish fillet. Should that be so? :)
And this cat mod is awesome!
I am thinking about removing naturally spawning cats completely because I think of them more as house cats than wild cats. Then they would only be obtainable via trader. PeterSanderson
Is it currently possible to reduce the frequency with which cats spawn? They seem pretty ubiquitous at the moment. My house will soon resemble Bubbles' shed from the Trailer Park Boys
You can revive them with a temporal gear.
Or you can go to .../VintagestoryData/ModConfig/petconfig.json and add cat-male, cat-female and cat-kitten under the respawningPets category.
Then you can select a pet cushion for them were they respawn if they are hurt in battle. Tingcat
Is is possible to make them immortal or respawn or something? I think there's a method but I'm not smart enough to figure it out.
Thanks for sharing. 😀 Radostin
I prefer issues/ pullrequests on my Github when it comes to additions like translations.
Usually, Mamoru Mondai is very quick when it comes to updating the language files of my mods, but we have never spoken outside of is pullrequests, so I am unsure if he is still playing VS or has moved to other things.
If you want to provide the russian translation yourself, you can compare the english and russian language files and add the missing lines.
I prefer adding other peoples changes via pullrequest, but if this is too technical for you, you can simply open an issue on github or even dm me the json file directly on discord (G3rste#1850).
By itself, the Russian language works, but here are 2 phrases when pointing the sight at an animal are not translated)
command pet-команда питомцу
feed pet-накормить питомца
😇
cat hisses are global, playing at max volume regaurdless of distance
It should not be nessecary. As of now, the cat has no natural enemies, so the only things that could kill it are either players or fall damage. Mamessu
Is it possible we could get a config file to allow us to turn off spawning, attacking, and make them immortal? So that they have to be spawned in manually and are just adorable pets that wander around?
I'd love to use this mod with a few friends because we all love cats, but no one wants to be distressed by, well... dead cats.
In version 1.3.3 cats can be fed raw fish fillet if primitive survival is installed. Burgersim
HI there, love the mod, so do all the people on my/our server, but we were wondering, would it be possible to have compatibility with Primitive Survival? The fishes seem so perfect for the cats, but they won't accept them as food, so I wanted to ask about it ^^
@CaveSalamander Make a custom mod using a patch file to tweak the cats mod to your liking for your server. You can then do things like override the cat sounds, remove the cats running from tamed wolves (I did this in a mod for my server) or even increase their health (also did this). Upload mod, add to server, and enjoy
I appreciate it, thanks @Gerste ^^ And re-zipping is definitely a solution! I run a server though, distributing the altered mod to my players might be a bit of extra work.
I can lower the sound for the next update as well as the range where they start running away. But I am unwilling to completely remove the hissing because I find it to be very cat like :/. If you really dislike the hissing, you can disable it by unzipping the mod, going into assets/cats/entities/land/cat-(fe)male.json, removing the sound in the fleeentity AITask and then rezipping the mod. CaveSalamander
I love all the pelt colours they have, so much variety! Could they not keep hissing at tamed wolves though? I don't mind my cats bolting at the sight of a canine but the hissing sound is rather sharp and gets real old when you have both types of pets in one house :D
Currently not. I did not do the cat model by myself and I don´t have any model for a kitten. I could simply scale down the cat model, but that would not fully capture the cuteness of a kitten (baby animals tend to have a larger head in relation to the rest of their body than adults). I don´t have the talent to do complex entities with textures and animations myself, so I often rely on others for this kind of tasks. Lunchbox
Is there any way to breed cats?
Fixed in petai_v1.3.2. RogueRaidenTV
Attacking cats seems to set off some serious server errors

Hi! I made a french translation for your mod, feel free to add it if you want. 😊
fr.json - cats 1.2.1
I think having them swawn in like foxes but making the spawns less so it isn't flooded with cats would be a good idea. But yeah whatever way you want! Thank you! ^^
I tried to let them spawn in the same areas where red foxes spawn in, but i tried reducing the propability to one to 1/6 of the fox spawn, so the area is not flooded by cats. Should I let them be obtainable via purchase from a trader so that anyone can obtain one even if the spawn chances are not on their side?
Update: I just took a look and found out that I did not implement the spawning correctly :(. I will fix that and put cats in the offers of the survival trader in Version 1.2.1. Plumeria
Is there a certain region that the cats spawn?
Please add raccoon taming
