Description of feature request

In media and folklore, there is a trope of animals being able to detect evil or bad things before humans can, e.g. "canary in a coalmine", ship's cats being believed to detect bad weather, etc. Having pets panic within a certain distance of a Wither Storm could be interesting to:

In particular, here's what I'm thinking:

  • All pets refuse sit/stay commands and stand up on their own after a certain distance (should probably be a config)
  • Wolves howl and whine, cats hiss and spit, parrots scream and imitate the Wither Storm, horses and other tamable equine animals squeal and roar
  • Agaited animal noises increase in volume, intensity, or frequency the closer the Wither Storm is

If redstone alarm systems are present, I think the tradeoff between pet detection and redstone detection is portablity/range- pets being more portable but having a shorter detection range, and redstone being less portable but having a greater detection range.

Could also be a pet enchantment for Domestication Innovation if this detection ability is overpowered for all pets to have from the get-go; enchantment levels increase detection range.

This sounds like a feature that would exist in Wither Storm Plus if it was a mod. Cool idea though, it should be added.
