Pet Passive Health Regeneration
by ItsRevolt
Pet Passive Health Regeneration lets tamed pets heal on their own over time, so players no longer have to feed them by hand after every fight.
What it does
Tamed animals and pets regenerate health gradually while they are alive. The mod works in the same way horses do in vanilla, and it targets tameable entities, so pets from other mods that extend the tameable base class are covered too. A pet needs food for the process to run, and the mod is tuned so that one heart comes back roughly every 45 seconds.
The mod is installed on the server only, so players join without any client-side files. It is published for Fabric and covers Minecraft 1.21.1 – 1.21.10, with the latest file, 1.0.0, built for 1.21.10 and released on 2025-10-18. The code is public and the mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial 4.0 license, so it is not open source.

How it compares
Easy Pets is server-side only, open source under the MIT License, and built for 1.21.6 – 1.21.8. Simple Immortal Pets is open source under the MIT License and built for 1.21.8, but it needs both the client and the server. Immortal Pets is server-side only, not open source, and covers 1.21.1 – 1.21.11. This mod is the one that focuses on passive healing with a fixed timing.
