Fat Cats Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to reinstall the pack if I already have cats in my world?
No, existing cats will update to the new fluffy appearance the next time you load your world or the chunk they're in reloads. You don't need to do anything after installing the pack.
Will Fat Cats work with my other resource packs?
It depends on load order and what those packs modify. If another pack also changes cat textures or models, whichever loads last will take priority. Check the guide on using Fat Cats with other packs for layering strategies.
Can I make cats even fluffier than the pack does?
You can edit the pack's model files to increase the width and height values further, though this requires basic knowledge of resource pack structure. The customization guide covers how to modify cat dimensions beyond the default.
Do the fat cats take up more space or affect collision?
Fat Cats only changes how cats look visually—their actual hitbox and collision behavior remain unchanged, so they won't clip through blocks or affect gameplay mechanics.
Why do my cats look normal in multiplayer servers?
Resource packs are client-side only, so other players won't see your fat cats unless they also install the pack. The server doesn't need to have it installed.
Does this pack affect wild cats or only tamed ones?
All cats in the game—whether tamed, wild, or stray—will appear fluffy and plump with this pack installed.
Can I disable Fat Cats for specific cats or use it selectively?
Resource packs apply globally to all instances of a mob, so you can't selectively apply it to some cats and not others without uninstalling the pack entirely.
Will Fat Cats cause lag or performance issues?
No, this pack only modifies the visual model and texture of cats, which has negligible performance impact. It doesn't add new entities or complex mechanics.
What Minecraft versions does Fat Cats support?
Check the pack's download page for the specific versions it's designed for, as resource pack compatibility depends on the game version you're playing.
Can I use Fat Cats in a modpack or with mods that add new mobs?
Fat Cats will work fine with most modpacks since it only affects vanilla cats. Mods that add entirely new cat species won't be affected unless they use the same model files.
