Panda Paws
Panda Paws is a Forge mob mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that gives pandas a set of abilities players can use to climb, walk on powdered snow and defend themselves.
What it does
Pandas gain new behaviors in this mod, letting a tamed panda take part in a player's adventure. The mod is a small utility addition, and its features focus on movement and combat support rather than new terrain or dimensions. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it installed.
Panda Paws is published only for Forge, with a single game version: 1.21.1. The current build is 1.21.1-0.0.1, released 2026-04-24, and the code is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Panda climbing
Pandas can climb, letting them follow a player up walls and over obstacles.
Powdered snow walking
Pandas can walk across powdered snow, where they would otherwise sink.
Defensive behavior
Pandas can defend their owner, adding a protective role to the animal.
