Cat Type
An animal face type with a chic and refined impression
What is the Cat Type?
"Cat type" refers to people who have a chic and refined impression. Like a cat, they possess an independent and mysterious charm, with delicate features and a confident, elegant appearance.
Reading your Cat Type result more closely
Identifying cues
- Upturned outer eye corners and clearly defined eyes create a polished mood.
- A slim face shape or a sharp jawline alongside them strengthens the Cat Type cue.
- The self-possessed impression comes through best in a neutral or calm expression.
How it differs from similar types
The Fennec Fox Type reads sharper and more quick-witted, and the Snake Type centres on a colder, more intense gaze. The Cat Type is defined by a polished balance that is sleek without ever being severe.
Reading results by photo condition
- A strong side angle emphasises the jawline and can tip the result toward the Cat or Fennec Fox Type.
- The Cat Type mood reads better in a relaxed photo than in one with the eyes held wide open.
- Strong shadows make the eyes look sharper and can change the result.
Using the result, and what to keep in mind
- As a styling reference it suits chic, polished and independent moods.
- Calling an impression cold is not a judgement of the person, so read it lightly.
- Comparing it with the Fennec Fox and Snake Types shows the difference in how sharp each one is.
What separates it from similar types
| Compared with | What is alike | What sets them apart |
|---|---|---|
| Fennec Fox Type | Slim outline and upturned eye corners | The Fennec Fox Type has a smaller face with a pointed chin. The Cat Type has larger, more clearly defined features. |
| Snake Type | Sharp, clean eye lines | The Snake Type has narrow, elongated eyes. The Cat Type has upturned corners but the eyes themselves are round and large. |
| Puppy Type | Almost the opposite axis | The Puppy Type has downturned eye corners and rounded facial lines. Similar scores mean your impression sits somewhere in between. |
Cat Type frequently asked questions
How do I tell the Cat Type from the fox family?
Look at face size and jawline. Upturned eye corners are common to both, but the Fennec Fox Type has a small overall face with a chin that narrows to a point. The Cat Type has clearly drawn features that take up more of the face.
Does wearing makeup make the Cat Type more likely?
It can. Extending eyeliner genuinely changes the angle of the outer eye corner, which shifts the analysis. If you want to know your everyday impression, check again with a photo wearing light makeup.
I only get the Cat Type with a neutral expression.
Smiling lowers the outer eye corners and lifts the cheeks, which strengthens cues from the rounder family. Neither result is wrong — it means your impression really does change that much with your expression.
