Ocelot Mob Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains all about ocelots with screenshots and step-by-step instructions. Let’s learn about ocelots in Minecraft.

TIP: 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).

Background

The following is a picture of what an ocelot looks like in Minecraft:

Hostility Level	Passive Mob
Health Points	10 health points  x 5
Where to Find	In the Jungle and Bamboo Jungle biomes
Weapon	None
Attack Method	Will never attack you
Drops	None
Experience Points	1-3 experience points

Hostility Level (Passive)

An ocelot 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 ocelots. Because an ocelot is a passive mob, it will never attack you in the game (Creative or Survival mode).

Health Points

In Minecraft, an ocelot has 5 hearts

 for health. This gives an ocelot 10 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill an ocelot, you need to inflict 10 points of damage to the ocelot.

Where to Find Ocelots

In Minecraft, you can find ocelots in the Jungle and Bamboo Jungle biomes.

Jungle

Bamboo Jungle

If you are having trouble finding an ocelot, you can summon an ocelot using a cheat or you can use a spawn egg.

Weapon

An ocelot does not carry a weapon.

Attack Method

You are safe to walk near an ocelot and it will not attack or cause you any damage. And if you attack an ocelot, it will just stand there. It will not attack you back.

Drops

When you kill an ocelot in Minecraft, it will not drop anything. It is one of the few mobs that when killed, does not drop any items.

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 an ocelot, you will gain 1-3 experience points.
