Food

Raw salmon restores 2 (🍗) hunger and 0.4 saturation.

Cats

Raw salmon can be used to tame cats with 1⁄3 chance of success, get cats off of chests, and beds, breed cats, and make baby cats grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time. Additionally, raw salmon can be used to heal cats by 2HP❤️.

Ocelots

Raw salmon can be used to gain ocelot trust, breed ocelots, and make baby ocelots grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.

Dolphins

A dolphin can be fed raw salmon to increase its trust of the player and cause it to interact with the player more often. However, unlike most other animal mobs, this does not cause them to breed. Additionally, raw salmon can be used to make baby dolphins grow up faster by 10% of the remaining time.

Dolphins swim to the nearest chest in a shipwreck or underwater ruin after they are fed raw salmon. If the chest in the nearest structure is broken, they swim to another structure with a chest.
