Description

Allows you to pick up mobs as items by Shift+right clicking them (crouch+use).

Holding a wolf with other mobs in hotbar

You can place the mob back in the world by using it on the ground, or dropping it (configurable).

As a bonus, you can also wear them on your head!

Wearing a wolf on head

By default, you must have empty hands, and only animals that are smaller than 2x2 blocks can be picked up, but you can configure all of these parameters.

Configuration

Configuration should match between server and client to avoid visual glitches. Install McQoy for a config GUI.
