Cat Mob Wiki Guide
This Minecraft tutorial explains all about cats with screenshots and step-by-step instructions. Let’s learn about cats in Minecraft.
Background
In older versions of Minecraft, a cat was a type of mob that was created by taming an ocelot. However, in newer versions of the game, a cat is a new type of mob that is independent of the ocelot. Now, there are stray cats wandering around in the game that you can tame into pets (instead of taming an ocelot).
The following is a picture of what a cat looks like in Minecraft:

| Hostility Level | Passive Mob | 
|---|---|
| Health Points | 10 health points  x 5 | 
| Where to Find | In villages and Witch huts | 
| Weapon | None | 
| Attack Method | Will never attack you | 
| Drops |   0-2 String | 
| Experience Points | 1-3 experience points | 
| Special Skills | A cat can be tamed and can make a great pet | 
Hostility Level (Passive)
A cat is a passive mob. The term mob is short for mobile and is used to refer to all living, moving creatures in the game such as chickens, creepers, and cats. Because a cat is a passive mob, it will never attack you in the game (Creative or Survival mode).
Health Points
In Minecraft, a cat has 5 hearts 
 for health. This gives a cat 10 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill a cat, you need to inflict 10 points of damage to the cat.
Where to Find Cats
In Minecraft, stray cats can be found roaming near villages in most biomes. You can find cats in villages in the Plains, Desert, Savanna, Taiga and Meadow biomes.
Plains Village

Desert Village

Savanna Village

Taiga Village

Meadow Village

Witch Hut
A stray black cat may also spawn in a Witch Hut in the Swamp biome:

If you are having trouble finding a cat, you can summon a cat using a cheat or you can use a spawn egg.
Weapon
A cat does not carry a weapon.
Attack Method
You are safe to walk near a cat and it will not attack or cause you any damage. And if you attack a cat, it will just stand there. It will not attack you back.
Drops
When you kill a cat in Minecraft, it may drop string.

Make sure you pick up any dropped items before they disappear. They are useful and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.
Experience Points
As you play the game, you will gain experience. The most common way to gain experience is by killing mobs. When a mob is killed you will see tiny green and yellow balls appear and move towards you.

These orbs represent experience points. When you kill a cat, you will gain 1-3 experience points.
Special Skills
A cat is a unique mob in that you can tame as a pet. This makes a great companion in the game as the tamed cat will scare away creepers.
