Build /summon commands with custom NBT for every vanilla mob — baby variants, equipment, colors, and mob-specific options.

Run /summon from an operator’s chat, a command block, or the server console. Not every internal NBT field is covered — this generates the commonly-used ones for each mob.

How to Use the Cat Summon Generator

  1. Type cat into the search box (or leave the default – this page opens straight to the Cat panel).
  2. Check Tamed if you want it to behave like a player’s pet immediately, instead of a wild ocelot-adjacent stray.
  3. Pick a Variant from the 11 available breeds, including the rare Jellie skin based on a real streamer’s cat.
  4. Pick a Collar Color – only visible once the cat is tamed.
  5. Copy the generated /summon command and paste it into a command block, the server console, or an operator’s chat.

Command Syntax & NBT Reference

The base command is /summon minecraft:cat ~ ~ ~ {NBT}. This tool fills in the {NBT} portion for you:

  • Tame:1b – marks the cat as already tamed, skipping the usual repeated feeding (raw cod or raw salmon) needed to win over a wild one near a village or swamp hut.
  • variant:"minecraft:<name>" – sets the breed texture (Tabby, Black, Red, Siamese, British Shorthair, Calico, Persian, Ragdoll, White, Jellie, All Black). This has no gameplay effect on its own beyond a chance to scare away Creepers and Phantoms, which every tamed cat does regardless of breed.
  • CollarColor:<0-15> – sets collar dye color; only renders once the cat is actually tamed, matching vanilla where an untamed cat wears no collar.

This generator has no field for Owner the way Wolf does – a cat tamed via NBT this way is generically “tamed” without a bound player, so it will still sit, follow, and gift items to whichever player is nearby the way a tamed cat normally does after being fed by that player.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does a tamed cat still scare away Creepers and Phantoms?

Yes – any tamed cat, regardless of its Variant breed or Collar Color, keeps Creepers from sneaking up within a short radius and prevents Phantoms from spawning near a sleeping player who owns one nearby. This generator doesn’t need a separate toggle for it since it’s automatic for any tamed cat.

Can I make an untamed cat with a specific Collar Color set?

The NBT tag will be included in the command, but the collar visually only appears once the cat is tamed – an untamed cat looks the same as a wild ocelot-relative regardless of what Collar Color is set underneath.

Is the Jellie variant based on a real cat?

Yes – Jellie is modeled after a Twitch streamer’s actual cat and was added as a special variant alongside the other standard breeds; it behaves identically to any other cat breed in gameplay.

Will this command work the same way on Bedrock Edition?

No – this tool generates Java Edition SNBT syntax. Bedrock Edition uses its own command and component format for cat variant and collar color.
