Entps are like cats 🐱
When healthy, they are the sweet cats. They like time to themselves, doing who knows what, they get upset if you don't let them in/out when they want, and they always come home at the end of the day. They don't pretend they're not emotionally invested, they sit on your lap and purr. They're curious and playful - kind of like small children.
They're deep and thoughtful, and will sometimes just stare out the window.
They don't like dogs 😋 They like pointless hunting. They're scared of change and visitors, and get upset if you spend too long with other cats. They meow at you until you feed them or give them what they want. They're very particular. Also stirrers who will sit on your kitchen bench while staring at you. They like to pretend they're lions. They like annoying forms of affection, like headbutting you and sitting on your face or licking you. You know they love you when they fall asleep on you and come home after a long day out - when they run to the front door when you pull in the drive way.
These cats are super easy to love and are low maintenance, but they can also be easily thrown off by stress. Which brings us further along in our analogy:
Entps in a Ne-Fe loop are kind of like feral cats 🙀
They hate everyone and believe everyone hates them. They are out to fend for themselves, and will be as nice as they have to be for food. If you try to pat them they will hurt you. They would rather sleep in the rain than in your cosy house. Usually, stray cats are put down, but you can't do that to humans, so I guess you'll just have to slowly tame them with food and small gestures of affection...?
Entps in a Si grip are like a stressed cat 🙀
(aka stereotypical cat. Possibly also stereotypical entp).
They refuse to use their litter box and urinate everywhere. They destroy everything they come across. They pick one spot to defecate in that isn't their litter box and keep going there, no matter what you do. They just won't use their litter box, because that ONE TIME something bad happened there. They groom themselves obsessively and refuse to eat unless IT'S JUST RIGHT. They jump on the kitchen bench and eat house plants and wires.
They are withdrawn and will hide behind furniture to avoid you. They don't care if you come or go, and look like they hate you (but they're actually extremely scared and insecure).
I guess the solution is the same as for a stressed cat: give them space, some new toys, good food, move the litterbox, and hope for the best.
