No more needing to leave your pets at home for safety.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Bonding that matters**: Petting and scratching your cat (sneak + right click with an open hand), feeding them, and sticking together  deepen your bond and unlock stronger companionship.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Unique companions**: Randomized stats, class type, favorite food to discover, gender (optional), and class.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Class abilities**: Naiad, Guardian, Witchling, Dreamer, Lucky &#8211; powers scale with affinity.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Expressive behavior**: Cats emote based on weather, time, and their bond with their owner. They react to the world, teleport smartly, show affection, and follow when tempted with food.<br \/>\n&#8211; **Multiplayer friendly**: Optional friendly-fire protection and owner-only breeding.<\/p>\n<p>## How It Works<br \/>\n&#8211; **Automatic upgrade**: Vanilla cats become Improved Cats (keeps name, variant, owner, collar color).<br \/>\n&#8211; **Custom taming**: Use **Ancient Cod\/Salmon** (rare drops from cod\/salmon or fisherman trades).
