Independent Pets is a useful mod for animal tamers in Minecraft. With it, your pets will behave more realistically, and not just follow the character. For example, cats will constantly climb onto various objects, and dogs will explore the area around them. This is a Forge mod, but you can also download the Independent Pets for Fabric.
