About PurrJung Cat Personality Statistics
What Do These Statistics Show?
This page displays anonymous, aggregated data from all PurrJung cat personality tests taken worldwide. The statistics help reveal patterns in feline personality distribution and provide insights into the most common behavioral tendencies among cats. All data is collected anonymously with no personal information stored.
Type Distribution
The type distribution chart shows how cats are distributed across all 16 PurrJung personality types. This reveals which personality types are most and least common among tested cats. Common patterns include a fairly even distribution with slight tendencies toward certain types depending on the breed populations being tested.
Breed Distribution
The breed distribution shows which cat breeds are most frequently tested. This provides insight into PurrJung's user base and which breed communities are most engaged with personality testing. Popular breeds typically include domestic shorthairs, mixed breeds, and well-known pedigree breeds like Maine Coons, Ragdolls, and Siamese cats.
Dimension Breakdown
The four behavioral dimensions measured by PurrJung are: Social vs Solitary (E/I), Routine vs Novelty (S/N), Independent vs Bonded (T/F), and Structured vs Spontaneous (J/P). The dimension distribution shows the overall split between each pole, revealing whether tested cats as a population tend toward sociability or solitude, routine or novelty, independence or bonding, and structure or spontaneity.
How to Interpret the Data
These statistics reflect the cats whose owners chose to take the PurrJung test, so the sample may not represent all cats globally. Cat breeds, ages, and living situations can all influence personality outcomes. The data is most useful for understanding broad personality trends and comparing your own cat's results to the wider tested population.
