Then make sure you carry many fish … these guys are gluttons. My first ocelot ate 6 (or so) fish before it decided to trust me.

Hmmm, but I never use dogs or cats for other than decorative reasons. They look great in the bedroom and on the porch (I'm mainly building, breeding and farming in Minecraft). Except breeding - the little ones are so cute. I like to adventure alone, and I'd never get over a cat or dog falling into a lava pit.
