Call Your Cat

by Jodek

With Call Your Cat, a player holding a goat horn can summon a tamed cat from anywhere in the world, even when its chunk is unloaded.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalMIT LicenseOpen source1.21 – 26.3

What it does

Only the cat's owner can use the horn. Holding a goat horn in hand and then using it teleports the owned cat to the player, and the horn can be used again after each call. Sneaking while looking at a cat for about four seconds lets the owner give the cat a name, and the name may include special characters. The horn is marked with an enchanted look once it is linked to a cat.

The mod is a server-required addition: the server must run it, while a client may leave it out. Call Your Cat is open source under the MIT License and depends on 5555ff-lib. Files are published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the data pack option is also listed. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.3 across 17 release versions, with the latest file v2.2.0.0+mod for 26.3 dated 2026-09-28.

Key features

  1. Whistle cat with goat horn

    A goat horn held in hand calls the owned cat to the player, with the teleport triggered each time the horn is used.

  2. Calls from any distance

    The summon works at any distance and reaches cats in chunks that are not loaded.

  3. Name tags with symbols

    A cat can be given a name that includes special characters, set by sneaking and looking at it for four seconds.

  4. Owner-only horns

    Only the owner of a cat receives the goat horn and can use it to call that cat.

Who it’s for: Players who keep tamed cats and want to bring them back quickly, and server owners who want that option for their members.

Questions

Does Call Your Cat require another mod?

Yes. It depends on 5555ff-lib, so that library must be installed alongside Call Your Cat on the same loader.

Does a player need the mod to call a cat?

No. Server owners install it, and players can join with or without it.

Files cover 17 release versions 1.21 – 26.3, including 1.21.11 and 26.3, and the newest file is v2.2.0.0+mod for 26.3.

What the author says

The cat can be anywhere, it always works to teleport it to you, even in unloaded chunks There's currently a bug, where if the cat you want to call is too far away it will be invisible after the teleport
