Froggo
by CraftKernel
Froggo lets players tame named animals such as frogs, cows, pigs, sheep and chickens, turning them into companions that cannot be harmed.
What it does
Any animal that carries a name tag can be tamed by right-clicking it while holding its breeding food, for example slimeballs for frogs or wheat for cows. Once tamed, the animal stays tied to its owner across world reloads, and its owner and sitting state are saved with it. A tamed companion follows its owner wherever they go, and a right-click toggles whether it sits or stands. Tamed companions take no damage from any source, and right-clicking one while holding its breeding food restores its health.
The mod works with Fabric. Both the server and every player need it, since the environment is client and server. Files are published for Fabric and 1.21.1 only, with 1.4.2 as the latest file, released on 2026-05-27.

Key features
Taming named animals
Animals given a name tag can be tamed with their breeding food, which makes frogs, cows, pigs, sheep and chickens usable as companions.
Companions that cannot be harmed
A tamed animal takes no damage from any source, so it survives fights and hazards that would kill a wild one.
Follow and sit control
A right-click toggles whether a companion follows its owner or stays in place, which suits both travel and building.
Persistent ownership
Tamed status, the owner and the sitting state are saved and restored after the world is reloaded.
Healing with food
Right-clicking a companion while holding its breeding food restores its health, without needing a separate healing item.

What the author says
Froggo lets you tame any animal in the game — not just frogs. Give an animal a name tag, then right-click it while holding its breeding food to tame it. Your new companion will follow you wherever you go, and since they're yours, they can't be harmed by anything.
