Meow Meals

by TNTISGOOD

Cats gain a dedicated food line in Meow Meals, with handcrafted cat-exclusive items that also feed tamed cats more of the vanilla foods they already accept.

What it does

Meow Meals adds food items made for cats, such as the Cat Food Tin, Fish Feast, Meat Feast and Smoked Rabbit. Each item can be eaten by players as well, and some of them apply effects when eaten. Cats can also be fed a wider set of vanilla items than the game allows by default, so owners have more choices when feeding a pet.

Feeding a cat with these items triggers particle effects and can affect taming progress and breeding, giving the food a gameplay role rather than only a decorative one. The mod is a lightweight addition built on Fabric API and Fabric Language Kotlin, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, across 16 release versions 1.21 – 26.2, with 1.0.2+26.2 as the latest file for 26.2.

Key features

  1. Cat-exclusive food

    Handcrafted food items are made for cats and are not part of the vanilla recipe list.

  2. Extra vanilla feeding

    A wider set of ordinary vanilla items can be used to feed cats, adding variety to pet care.

  3. Food effects

    Some foods apply effects to the player who eats them, not only to the cat that receives them.

  4. Taming and breeding bonuses

    Feeding cats with these items can add particle effects and changes to taming and breeding.
