How to Breed Cats in Minecraft

Just like a wolf, you’ll need to tame the cat before you can breed it. Once you’ve done that, you won’t need to build any animal farm to keep the cats from running away.

To breed a cat you’ll need to feed it either raw cod or raw salmon. Once you’ve fed the cats either one of those fishes, they’ll enter love mode. A baby kitten should spawn within a few seconds after that.
