i lost 3 cats, 3 wolves, 2 villagers and 1 or more sheep and maybe trader llamas. i was 200 blocks away when my tamed cats despawned, 2000 when my tamed wolves despawned and 17000 away when my sheep and villagers despawned (not sure about the last one). also there was no death messages, the villagers were fenced and so was the sheep, and my difficulty was only on easy when i was like 1500 blocks away from my villagers.

I have 5 dogs and 1 parrot and was experiencing the same issue. That being said, they're all in different chunks. I noticed that if I leave for a while and come back all of them will be gone except for like one or two, (and my wall of item frames maps would disappear as well), but by standing in the chunk next to them and then reloading the world a few times, I got them to come back somehow. Now I just reload anytime they disappear. Only started experiencing this in 19w08b.
I'm having the same issue in 19w08b. I'm playing on a server and I have observed that if I restart the server or if I go to the nether and come back, other entities disappear and appear sometimes duplicated, randomly.
