An ocelot is a passive mob found in jungles.

Spawning

Ocelots spawn above grass blocks in jungle biomes at the world's sea level (Y-level 63 per default) or higher. Ocelots spawn in groups of 1-2 adult ocelots 95% of the time or as babies 5% of the time. There is a small chance for two baby ocelots to spawn when an adult ocelot spawns naturally. Ocelots are found in all kinds of jungle biomes in Bedrock Edition. Ocelots spawn as hostile mobs in Java Edition; as a counterbalance, there is a ¹⁄₃ chance for a spawn attempt to fail in jungles and spawning does not occur in bamboo jungles or sparse jungles. Because of this, while ocelots are passive animal mobs, they cannot spawn at all on Peaceful difficulty. Even though ocelots spawn as part of the "hostile" mob cap, they are not restricted to spawn within 128 blocks of the player, but will spawn like passive mobs in chunks close to the player.

Drops

On death

Adult ocelots drop 1–3XP experience orbs when killed by a player or tamed wolf. Killing a baby ocelot yields no experience.

Breeding

Upon successful breeding, 1–7XP is dropped.

Behavior

Ocelots are immune to fall damage, but still avoid falls. An ocelot attacks chickens and baby turtles. They sneak and stalk their prey before chasing it down. They can kill through a fence, a fence gate, or a door if they are against it.

Creepers stay six blocks away from ocelots. A creeper within this range that has begun its detonation does not flee unless the player leaves its blast radius. Phantoms stay 16 blocks away from ocelots in Bedrock Edition.

With the exception of a faster movement rate, baby ocelots have the same behavior as adults.

Ocelots are one of the few mobs that can sprint, and they sprint away from nearby players in Survival or Adventure mode.

Ocelots approach players holding raw cod or raw salmon within 10 blocks. If the player moves, turns their head too quickly, or stops holding the item while within 6 blocks, the ocelot flees and does not attempt to approach the player again for a few seconds.

Ocelots cannot be tamed. Instead, a player can gain an ocelot's trust by feeding it raw cod or salmon until heart particles show, causing it to no longer flee from players. Each food item has a ¹⁄₃ chance of gaining the ocelot's trust.

In Bedrock Edition, ocelots that are trusting do not despawn. In Java Edition, trusting ocelots despawn like other mobs when beyond 128 blocks from the player unless named or in a boat.

Breeding

When a trusting ocelot is fed raw cod or raw salmon, it enters love mode. In Bedrock Edition, breeding creates a baby ocelot that trusts the player. The adults cannot breed again for 5 minutes once they have completed breeding. The growth of baby ocelots can be accelerated using cod or salmon; each feeding takes 10% off the remaining time to mature.

Sounds

Java Edition:
Ocelots use the Friendly Creatures sound category for entity-dependent sound events.

History

1.2.1			12w04a				Added ocelots. Ocelots are the first mob created by Jon Kågström, an AI specialist who worked with Jens Bergensten on Minecraft. Jens created the texture for the ocelot, as Jon had trouble doing so himself.

In reference to this, cats and ocelots take no fall damage.
							Ocelots are difficult to tame.
							Ocelots have a debug message appear when they are spawned.
