How to make the block change color and cause damage when touching

You can use a .Touched event to detect when the part touches a character.

Basic Example:

--you would want this to be a server script since it handles all the players at once.
Workspace.Pet.Touched:Connect(function(touchedpart) --this will only work if Workspace.Pet is a "Part", or another instance with the .Touched event.

    if touchedpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid") then --a check to make sure the touched part is inside the character model 
    touchedpart.Parent:FindFirstChild("Humanoid"):TakeDamage(100) --damage the player
    end
end)
