Cat Archetypes Explained (for Dummies)
Cats have personalities. While some are playful and brave, others are grumpy and avoidant. Their demeanor and temperament determine whether they lean towards being extroverted, introverted, or something in between. These distinct behaviors in cats are commonly referred to as “archetypes,” representing a set of unique and distinguishable attributes observed in individual pets or across the entire feline species.
What Are the Most Common Archetypes Among Cats
Jackson Galaxy, a cat expert, divides cats into three primary archetypes: Napoleon, Wallflower, and Mojito—all based on their confidence and territorialism.
- Napolean: Overprotective, dominant cats who don’t like to share their territory.
- Wallflower: Skittish, submissive cats who avoid conflicts at all costs.
- Mojito: Confident and sociable cats who are welcoming in their territory.
By the way, assuming you’re a cat person, don’t you wonder if your cat loves you? We have an analytical quiz that settles that age-old question once and for all.
How to Know Your Cat Archetype
Five traits delineate your feline archetype: skittishness, friendliness, outgoingness, dominance, and spontaneity. The closer you align with the friendly-skittish-outgoing spectrum, the less aggressive you are. Conversely, exhibiting traits of dominance and spontaneity suggests less agreeableness and sociability.

How to Play?
Playing personality quizzes is straightforward: Choose the option that’s true about you—or you relate to—and select “Next.” Unlike trivia quizzes, personality tests have no right or wrong answers. But the questions are in forced-choice format. The point is to push you to choose an option that makes the most sense, not the one that’s 100% true. For the most accurate results, don’t overthink your responses. Go with options that you “feel” are the best.
