NoCat
by AaronVB
NoCat stops cats from spawning in villages and witch huts, and removes the ones already placed there without deleting them from the world.
What it does
Villages and witch huts normally generate cats in vanilla, and NoCat stops those spawns on Fabric without touching anything else. Cats that already exist in a world are not deleted, and the mod keeps them in place, so the change is non-destructive. Structures generated after the mod is installed simply do not spawn cats.
Only the server needs the mod, so players can join a server running NoCat without installing anything. The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for 1.19.2 – 1.19.3 with Fabric as its only loader.
Key features
Village cat spawns disabled
Cats no longer generate in village structures on a server running the mod.
Witch hut cat spawns disabled
Witch huts stay free of cats, so witches are not accompanied by them after generation.
Existing cats kept
Cats already present in a world are left alone rather than being removed, so the change is non-destructive.

How it compares
Catify is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.2 – 1.21.11 under the MIT License, so it runs on the player's side rather than the server. Creeping Cats is server-side for 1.21.1 – 1.21.7 under the MIT License and is open source. Both target different versions from NoCat, which covers 1.19.2 – 1.19.3.

What the author says
"NoCat" is a simple Fabric (and by extension, hopefully Quilt) mod that disables cat spawns in villages and witch huts. It does this non-destructively, meaning that if you remove the mod, cats should once again spawn in the aforementioned structures.
