Broken down by axis
Activity range 72pts
One roams while the other holds its spot, so territory splits on its own. Setting aside one hiding place for the quieter one settles things further.
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 58pts
They keep a similar approach distance, which invites standoffs over bowls and litter boxes. Run one more litter box than you have cats, and keep the bowls apart.
Axis meanings and weights differ from human MBTI compatibility, so the same letter pair scores differently for people, dogs, and cats.
