INTP
I'm the most catlike cat!
Cat with strong individualism! Cat likes spending time alone and may not be very interested in you Cat tells you honestly how Cat feels. Cat is smart and curious and likes thinking. Isn’t it the most catlike cat?
Personality traits
Introversion (I), Intuition (N), Thinking (T) and Perceiving (P) make the INTP cat an investigator. Strongly individualistic, it is most at ease alone and does not take an excessive interest in you — though it expresses its own moods with complete honesty. Clever and curious, it is often found studying something intently.
Everyday behavior
It will watch a dripping tap or a spinning washing machine for a long time, and study any new object at length before touching it. Called, it carries on with its own business — yet it appears precisely when it actually needs you. It generally declines to be held while always staying in one corner of the same room: affection at a distance is this type’s idiom.
Care tips
The first condition for getting along with this cat is not to insist on physical contact. Give it more to observe instead: a window seat, running water, toys with complicated mechanics all suit it well. A puzzle feeder that makes it work for treats reduces boredom and overeating at once, and keeping the environment quiet increases how often it approaches you on its own.
Best matches
With the fellow Thinking (T), Intuitive (N) INTJ cat neither disturbs the other — the most comfortable arrangement of all. The matter-of-fact ISTP cat shares its interact-only-when-needed distance, and the lively ENTP cat operates at a play level it can meet occasionally. Types that want constant closeness, however, wear it down steadily.
