Hello, this topic is a suggestion I have about something that should be added in vanilla Minecraft. If someone has already came up with this idea, I'm sorry I didn't check.
As you can see from the topic title, I have an idea for Pets to be able to be armoured with helmets, and boots. The mobs that could be armoured would include wolves, cats, pigs, and maybe chickens. I know that there is a mod for this (however I think it only adds armoured pigs and chickens), but I believe that this should really be implemented. Here's why:
I have noticed so far that some of the mobs are useless in the game. When you tame an ocelot, it does nothing for you, and for some reason you can't have pet pigs or chickens or cows. The reason I want the mobs to be able to be armoured when made a pet is because I have always wanted special pets, not just a regular dog, or a regular cat. If this was implemented, you WOULD be able to tame cows, pigs, and chickens finally. And if cats were armoured, they would fight for you, just like wolves. The armour would protect them too, and maybe even enchanted armour would take effect on them.
I think this would be a very fun (and cute) addition to vanilla Minecraft.
I believe cats ward of creepers. Also, I am confused - is this suggestion about armored mobs, them being pets, or both? I say because I think those are distinct. Anyway, I don't know why you would ever want an armored pig.
I think you can give them potion effects already, although only with splash potions. "Feeding" them the non splash potions might be a bit awkward, in determining who wants it (you or them).
Why I would want pet pigs:
Well, I think a lot of people would like to have more pets, wouldn't they?
And this would only add it so pigs, chickens, and cows could be tamed, and all of the pets could be armoured only with helmets and boots, so it isn't OP.

Alright, let me pick apart this fraction of your post and tell you why this doesn't help your suggestion.
You thinking and saying "they're pigs and they're awesome!" won't help us like your idea more. We won't go "Oh hey! This guy thinks pigs are awesome! Now I'm gonna support!"
...Why do we need pigs, chickens and cows to be tamed? They're just passive mobs with helpful drops, and we have plenty of helper mobs as is.
Stating animals only having helmets and boots as armor doesn't suddenly make the idea "not overpowered", however I don't think the idea is overpowered at all as it's just pointless overall.

Guys, I'm not telling you to THINK pigs and cows are awesome. And I'm not just trying to trick you into supporting me.
I think we need pigs and cows tamed and able to be armoured so we have MORE fun in Minecraft taming other mobs.
I just thought people would actually like having more animals to tame.

It can be argued that that wouldn't be more fun, because that could make the game too easy if you start taming pigs and cows and whatever left and right and giving them armor. I mean, we have wolves, Creeper scaring Ocelots, weak but distracting Snow Golems and huge hulking Iron Golems. All of which can be powered by splash potions. So do we really need to tack on more?

Hey, you there. Yes, you! Are you thinking about posting a suggestion on the forums anytime soon? If so, please read this before doing so.

I guess you do have a point.

I'm pretty sure this has already been suggested (to lazy to check) Plus I don't see why we should put armor on them. Wolves it makes sense because they attack other mobs but for the cats it just doesn't seem right. And why tame cows and such? If you are low on food and you want to kill them it just takes longer. And to me it sames like a waste of armor

Lol, maybe it would be ok just to armour wolves.

I don't think it is overpowered, but if you think so I am fine with that.
I just would love to have mobs that could fight for me and not die all the time.

And if you couldn't tell was a joke, I don't know what to say.

Also the armor is not OP. Horses are going to have armor.
Lol, maybe it should just be added that WOLVES have armour, not other pets.

Lol I know right. BTW the mob would drop the armour if you kill it.

No problem. But I do believe wolves should be able to have armour. Also, it is NOT overpowered. Horses have armour, why can't other mobs?
Maybe you should THINK before saying this is too OP.

Maybe as a mod.
Maybe...
