Meowing

This mod lets you pick up a Cat that you’ve tamed or an Ocelot that trusts you by right clicking it while holding String.
The Cat must not be a baby and cannot be sitting.

It also adds a keybind that lets you meow while holding a Cat or an Ocelot, bound to Left-Alt by default.
Using the keybind requires installation on both the client and the server.

The meow sound that plays depends on the selected slot of your hotbar.
Sounds include meowing, purring, hissing, and more.

Hissing will scare Phantoms away and slightly discourage Creepers from coming closer.

If installed on the server, any players can pick up Cats like described above. However, held Cats will not render correctly unless the connected player either: installs the mod on their client, or, renames the .jar to .zip, places it in the resourcepacks folder, and enables it.
