Ocelot

Ocelot
Type	Passive
Health
Drops	None
First Appearance	Update 0.12.1

Ocelots are Passive Mobs added in Update 0.12.1.

Spawn

Ocelots will only spawn naturally in Jungle Biomes, but they can wander out of them which allows the Player to then find them outside of the biome.

Taming

Before Update 1.8, Ocelots could be tamed by feeding them 1-12 Fish. However, unlike Wolves, the Player must wait for the Ocelot to approach them. If the Player moves too quickly towards the Ocelot, it will sprint away. It is best to sneak when approaching an Ocelot. As of Update 1.8, the Cat is now its own mob, and feeding Ocelots will only gain their trust.

Defense

Creepers and Phantoms  will run away from both Ocelots and Cats, even if provoked by the Player, making Ocelots a great defense against a Creeper, although a Creeper can still blow up players and nearby Ocelots within the range of its explosion.

Trivia

• Ocelots were supposed to be added in Update 0.9.0, but Johan Bernhardsson stated that they would not be added as they were too buggy and Fishing was not yet developed fully.
• Ocelots may sometimes chase and kill Chickens.
• Ocelots do not take fall damage, along with the Cat, Chicken, Snow Golem, large and medium Slime, Magma Cube and Iron Golem.
• Ocelots are one of the few mobs that can sprint, the others being Cats , Baby Villagers, Baby Zombies, and Rabbits.
