Cats but better
by Doomdynastyx
Cats but better adds cat-themed items, weapons and a new cat mob to NeoForge 1.21.8, and the author describes it as a first mod.
What it does
Cat-based items include catmint and several cat-themed weapons, and a new cat mob joins the world alongside them. The author states the aim is to enhance and add cats, and notes the project is still being worked on. The mod is client-side only, so a server does not need it installed, and it is released for NeoForge 1.21.8 only under All rights reserved, which means it is not open source.
