Petting Mod — Configuration
Commanding Pets
Once tamed, a pet responds to its owner through both empty-handed interaction and a set of dedicated tools.
With an empty hand, the owner can right-click a pet to cycle through its states - standing up, mounting (if the pet is saddled), and sitting down. Crouching and right-clicking opens the pet's inventory.
The mod also provides interaction tools, each of which adjusts a specific behavior when used on a pet:
| Tool | Function |
|---|---|
| Status Stick | Cycles the pet between Follow, Wait, and Wander; crouch for a detailed status report |
| Follow Whistle | Sets how closely the pet follows (roughly 5-50 blocks) |
| Teleport Orb | Sets the distance at which the pet teleports to catch up (roughly 10-100 blocks) |
| Clock | Toggles whether the pet responds to the global whistle |
| Pet Tether | Binds the pet to roam within about a 10-block radius |
| Shears | Releases (untames) the pet when crouching and right-clicking |
| Goat Horn | Teleports all of your pets to you when crouched and used |
A goat horn can summon all owned pets at once, making it easy to gather a large group of companions.
