Tameable Fox
Tameable Fox lets players tame foxes on Forge 1.20.1, so a fox can follow and sit like a tamed wolf or cat.
What it does
Foxes in the world are tamed with sweet berries, the same way the mod's author describes for wolves and cats. Once tamed, a fox follows its owner and can be ordered to sit, and it stays seated until it is told to move again. A tamed fox still wanders off on its own from time to time, and it can go some distance from its owner before it returns.
The mod also gives tamed foxes collars, in the style of dog collars. The author notes describe AI improvements and possible custom models with more animations as ideas for later work, and mark the current build as beta with some known bugs. The mod is released under the MIT License and is open source, with a public source code repository and issue tracker. It runs on client and server, so players and the server both need it, and it targets Forge for 1.20.1 only.

Use cases
Companion foxes

Pet control
Owners can order a tamed fox to sit when they want it to stay in one place, then call it to walk again.
Who it’s for: Players on Forge 1.20.1 who want foxes to behave like tamed wolves or cats, and server owners who run that version and want the mod on both sides.

SuperFox is open source under the MIT License, runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, and is also client and server.
