I can't tame an ocelot.
I spawned an ocelot and gave it some fish, but it still would not be tamed. Does it have something to do with wolves? Because I had one at the time. How do you tame an ocelot???
Was it raw fish? It needs to be raw fish.
It needs to be raw fish and it helps if you hit the f8 button that will put you in the the smooth thing.
You have to use raw fish and toggle F8 then when the ocelot comes toward you you can right click with fish.
Put the raw fish in your hand.
Wait for the ocelot to get to you to check the fish.
Give him the fish when it's enough close to you.
Repeat if it don't work.
Mabe you'll have to give 2, 3, perhaps 4 fish to tame it.
If the ocelot is trapped it wont take the fish.
They need to walk to you.
You might have buggy minecraft... Have you ever downloaded any mods?
I have found that in survival mode, the ocelots are "crazy". If one is in a confined space with me it claws at the walls and sprints away no matter what. If I saw that behavior in a real cat, I would describe it as insane or terrified. Impossible to tame - less than a 1% chance. As soon as I switch to creative mode, the ocelot calms down and starts walking around, curious about its surroundings and occasionally interested in the raw fish I have in my hand. Maybe a 25% chance of taming. If you can spot 4 ocelots in a day of wandering around the jungle, you might be able to tame one on creative mode. If you were doing it in survival mode, you might need a month to get one. I like the cats but not that much.
After finally taming one on creative mode (it spawned on its own), I tried to lead it to the boat and it got caught under some leaves by a river and drowned:( I used a spawner egg and then tamed another one. Couldn't figure out how to get it in the boat so I put a leash on it and drug it behind me across the water about 1000 blocks, then I thought I would pull over at an island and give the cat a break and inadvertently discovered how to get it in the boat. You put a leash on it, then drag it out in the water in your boat. Come back to land, press shift and walk straight forward. You will then drag the cat directly over the boat. Then you can let go the leash and enter the boat. Note that the cat is in "sit" mode while in the boat so it won't leave on its own. I found it easiest to put a leash on the cat and then drag it out of the boat.
Thanks a bunch! I just needed to crouch I guess. I was getting really frustrated because nothing was working. This did though! So once again, Thanks!
If it's taking the fish, clearly you're using the right type and in the right place. The problem is that ocelots are greedy as hell and you will need to give them upwards of 20 raw cod or raw salmon before you see any results in terms of taming. Check the wiki, that's all I know.
Ocelots tend to tame better when in survival mode, rather than creative mode. I can never get ocelots to tame in creative mode, I always have to switch to survival long enough to get them to come to me and get tamed.
