Same lean on all four dimensions.

When a parcel arrives, it is the first to inspect it and stays until the box is open. It likes being in the room where people are, but not being picked up. Around the same time each day it reminds you about dinner, then waits for the usual wand-toy game.
Read the type guide · ENTJTwo 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.

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.
It inspected the ball track the day you brought it home, as it does anything new, and now sits by the track waiting for you to start a game.
