Where their days may overlap

Two cats of the same type share one description, so on paper their habits match on every dimension. Similar habits can mean easy company, and also wanting the same spot at the same time.

Social style

The Playtime Reminder · Joining the morning routine
ENFJ · Joins in Joining the morning routine

Your morning starts and it is already at your feet, tail up, ready to come along.

They may turn up in the same room, or at the same door, at the same moment. Offer more than one place to settle near you, such as two perches or two spots on the sofa, so neither has to wait for the other to move.

New experiences

The Playtime Reminder · Trying a new game together
ENFJ · Tries new things Trying a new game together

A new scratcher and a ball you roll toward it: it tries both, as long as you stay in the game.

They may reach a new box, bag or toy at the same time. Put out two boxes instead of one and rotate the toys, so neither has to wait its turn to look.

Closeness

The Playtime Reminder · Waiting at the door
ENFJ · Stays close Waiting at the door

When you come through the door it is already leaning its cheek against your leg.

They may want the same lap. Sit where there is room on both sides, give each cat some time with you on its own, and pause the petting now and then so either one can leave.

Daily rhythm

The Playtime Reminder · Resting close after a long day
ENFJ · Regular hours Resting close after a long day

After a full day it curls up against you on the sofa, as it does most evenings.

Meals, play and naps may fall at the same times for both. Feed them at set times in separate places, so a shared routine does not turn into a contest over one bowl.

Introducing two cats

These steps are the same for any two cats, whatever their types. Go at the pace of the less comfortable cat.

  1. Give the newcomer a separate room with its own food, water, litter, hiding place and bed.
  2. When both cats are relaxed, swap bedding or other items that carry their scent.
  3. Let them see each other briefly through a secure barrier, then move on to short, supervised meetings.
  4. If either cat tenses up, go back a step and give them time apart.
