      The Bug:

      Tamed cats panic when receiving damage.

      This behavior is inconsistent with wolves. Since the said cat is tamed, one would expect it not to panic when being attacked. This problem first appeared in 23w07a.

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Tame a wolf, make it sit, and attack it.
      2. Take note of how the wolf begins standing but does not begin panicking.
      3. Tame a cat, make it sit, and attack it.
      4. Take note as to whether or not tamed cats panic when receiving damage.

      Observed Behavior:

      Tamed cats panic when receiving damage, which is inconsistent with the behavior of tamed wolves.

      Expected Behavior:

      Tamed cats would not panic when receiving damage, therefore maintaining consistency with the behavior of tamed wolves.
