Broken down by axis
Activity range 86pts
Both hold their own spot, so territory divides cleanly. Once each has the place they like, they mostly ignore each other and stay relaxed.
Daily rhythm 80pts
Meals, play, and sleep fall at similar hours, so the daily routine is easy to match. Running hunting play at the same time leaves both satisfied.
Startle response 62pts
They react to strange sounds and visitors the same way, so both may bolt at once. Give each its own hiding spot and add new stimuli gradually.
Contact style 80pts
One approaches first while the other keeps its distance, so resource disputes are rare. They interact exactly as much as each wants without colliding.
Axis meanings and weights differ from human MBTI compatibility, so the same letter pair scores differently for people, dogs, and cats.
