Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

Do I need to update to Minecraft 1.14.2 Pre-Release 1?

My animals are disappearing from my villages.  All of my sheep, pigs, llamas, dogs, cats, cows.  Very annoying.    I've repopulated one of the villages three times now and now I'm just tired of doing it.  I'm using 1.14.1.

And they're not invisible, they're gone.

My animals are disappearing.  Whenever I leave one of my villages to go to another animals are just missing.  Sheep, Llamas, Cats, Dogs, Pigs, Cows.  Gone.  This is very aggravating.  Many of the animals I had to lead from quite a ways away.  I don't know the terminology, but I assume this is when I am leaving a "chunk" and then coming back to it.  This is so aggravating, in fact, that my desire to play on my server is dropping, which I pay a monthly fee to be hosted.  I searched for this issue in these bug reports and it seems that a lot of people are complaining about it and I see some have been resolved, but I think that is incorrect.  I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, I saw a post that 58% of posts are duplicates, but this "bug" forum is pretty messy.
