Company & curiosity
- When does your cat choose to join people?
- How do they approach a new toy or space?
Joins in · Tries new things · Keeps some space · Regular hours
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.
Everyday scenes
Four watercolor scenes from an imagined day, with a few questions to ask about your own cat. A real cat may choose differently from one day to the next.



Put a mat or a stool in the room where the household gathers, so it can be with people without being held. Open parcels on the floor and let it finish the inspection. The basket at the end of the hallway is where its day ends; keep it there.
Whatever the type, every cat needs food, water, a litter box, safe rest and play within easy reach. Adjust the home to this cat and to the cats already living there; a type cannot decide whether cats should live together.

Coming to remind you about dinner is not an attempt to run the house. It has learned when dinner happens and is checking that it still does. Sitting in the same room without wanting to be picked up is company too, at the distance it prefers.
It normally tells you when dinner is due. If the reminder stops, or it comes to the bowl and leaves food it used to finish, treat that as a change in appetite. Note how much it eats and drinks over the next day or two; a marked drop in appetite deserves a prompt call to the vet.
A change from this cat’s usual pattern is a reason to check the body first. Note what changed and when it started, and ask your veterinarian instead of putting it down to the type.
Each of these types differs from ENTJ on one dimension.
This compares type descriptions for fun. How two cats actually get along depends on each cat and their home.
View comparisonsJust for fun. The questions draw on cat behavior research, but the quiz itself has not been scientifically validated and cannot diagnose anything.
