Not Enough Pets

by AstroTibs

Not Enough Pets adds cats, dogs and parrots to Forge, with extra skins, sounds and collar dyes for tamed animals.

ForgeClient and serverGNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.6.4 – 1.12.2

What it does

The mod adds a range of tameable cats, dogs and parrots. Tamed cats keep the skin they were tamed with instead of receiving a random one, and ocelots still spawn in jungles as in vanilla, so a tamed ocelot keeps its look. The other cat skins appear in villages, and several skins are included for cats, dogs and parrots.

Parrots from Minecraft 1.12 are backported to older versions, and extra dog and parrot skins are included. Spawn eggs were added in a later release, but they do not control an animal's age or owner. Pets are summoned with commands that depend on the game version, such as notenoughpets:ocelot nep on 1.11 and 1.12, and a different naming scheme on the older releases.

The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the source code is public. Files are published for Forge across 7 release versions 1.6.4 – 1.12.2, with 2.4.1-1.12 for 1.12.2 as the latest file.

Questions

Does Not Enough Pets need to be installed on the server?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Which game versions does Not Enough Pets support?

Files exist for 1.6.4, 1.7.10, 1.8.9, 1.9.4, 1.10.2, 1.11.2 and 1.12.2, with the latest Forge file built for 1.12.2.

Does Not Enough Pets spawn tamed animals with set ages or owners?

No. The spawn eggs do not control an animal's age or owner, so the summon commands are the way to choose a specific pet.

What the author says

Are you tired of the same domestic cat/dog/parrot types? Have you wanted to obtain an Ocelot as a pet? Did you want parrots in 1.11 or earlier? Are you annoyed at pet sounds? Note: starting at version 1.4.0, NEP now has spawn eggs! However, these eggs don't control for animals' ages or owners.
