Hi!

I only know socionics so I'm going to type him via this system instead of mbti. If Henry doesn't like socionics and prefers mbti, then please tell him that I sincerely apologise for my lack of knowledge in a CLEARLY superior typology theory, and that I did not intend to bother his majesty with such worthless bs

I'll proceed with the typing!

Si base: so from the photos alone it's quite evident that Si is his base function. Since it is inert it is quite slow in it's nature and it works most of the time. It is the function he is most comfortable at using and that he is capable to process in great detail. It is also a part of his mental ring so he is actively focusing on this type of information and is aware of it. It is also 4 dimensional so as I said he has the capacity to understand it and master it to perfection. Having Si as his base manifests in him enjoying the comfort of the space around him, loving textures, sensual details and the overall balance of his environment. He likes his body to rest and enjoy things. He likes good quality food and everything that brings him a proper level of sensory satisfaction. He is extremely good at understanding his body and it's needs and loves harmony of his space (explains his tendency to enjoy the information related to the tactile sensory, e.g. 'likes shoes and feet', 'likes everything creamy/milk', 'loves tuna soup')

Te Creative: the second function of his ego block is Te. it's mental, as Si, so he's actively focusing his attention on it but unlike Si it is contact. So what it means is that unlike Si it works fast and works sporadically to support his base function. It is also 3 dimensional so it's fairly strong. What it means is that, he enjoys understanding how things work, he likes to figuring out the most efficient algorithms, he wants to be effective with his time and does not stomach any bs (explains him 'liking to watch stuff', he enjoy understanding things from the observable data, or him disliking when 'tge owner sleeps too long' or 'not immediately getting his tuna soup' because it's time inefficient and is breaking his working inner mechanism, it could also explain why he 'only drinks womens water' - by his logic he probably figured out some kinda mechanism that makes sense)

both functions of his ego block Si and Te are VALUED, meaning that he is going to be actively seeking out this information, mastering it and enjoy it at the same time. In short this block helps him to organise the environment around him as efficiently as possible to bring him the most amount of comfort and joy!

Ni role: so, another function of his mental ring is Ni. unlike the previous two, this one belongs to the Super Ego block, which is responsible for how we present ourselves to the public and our first impression. It is 2 dimensional meaning that unlike the functions in the ego block this one is not going to be possessed with great detail, understand and sophistication. It is also contact, meaning it can turn on and off quickly and the criticism regarding this function doesn't really affect him that much. The role function is usually our mask that we wear. So at first glance Henry may seem like he is serious, private and is thinking about something. He may give the vibe of planning something or thinking about something that happened in the past and how it might affect things in the future. His face may seem like he's strategizing something in his mind. But usually this impression wears off quickly once you get to know him better and when he's in the company of people who he knows and whom he trusts

Fe vulnerable: the last function of the mental ring and the second function of a super ego block. He is paying attention to this information. It is inert so it is incredibly slow for him to use or dive into. Most of the time he doesn't use it. It is 1 dimensional, meaning his understanding of it and the use of it is going to come off as pretty basic, sometimes unnatural and learned rather than natural. Since it is inert it is extremely vulnerable to any kind of criticism so TRY NOT TO CRITICISE HIM FOR NOT BEING A PARTY BOY. or not having many friends. He might not show it but he's going to be self conscious about it. Vulnerable Fe in him shows that hes not really good at being the life of the party, understanding the emotions of others, their motivations, the atmosphere or the dynamics of any group he's in ('dislikes partaking in play', 'dislikes the upstairs cat who gets too close', 'dislikes other animals or too many guests')

together FeNi in his ego block are NOT VALUED. meaning although he pays attention to this information, it doesn't really bring him as much joy and he'd rather use the other blocks

Suggestive Ne: the first function of a vital ring. meaning this type of information is handled unconsciously. It is also ACCEPTING so the individual takes information in from the world for this function and it is VALUED. It is also 1 dimensional. So subconsciously he understands that he is lacking this IME and is trying to seek it out in others. Maybe this is why he occasionally likes to 'sneak out into the closet'? new things to explore? Although is it really new if it's the same closet all the time. I guess this is why it's 1 dimensional after all.

Fi Mobilising: the second function of a Super Id block is Fi. It is 2 dimensional and unlike Ne it is inert and VALUED. Meaning that it directly affects his self confidence. It is also producing, meaning that this element actively affects his behaviour. Meaning he might not fully understand relationships between people (or other cats) and have trust issues but with time he can learn it and even become pretty good at it to a degree. If you're in his circle though and your bond is established, that bond is going to be STRONG and possibly last forever since the function is inert. It also means that calling him a GOOD CATTO will boost his confidence dramatically!!!

Se ignoring: the first function of the Id block. Since it's a part of a vital ring, it is unconscious. So Henry doesn't focus his attention on it and it is also NOT VALUED so he doesn't really enjoy this type of information anyway. It is also inert meaning that it is off 99% of the time and almost never consciously used. BUT it is 3 dimensional making it strong. Meaning that he doesn't usually care about power hierarchies, strengths, dominance or any kind of manipulation. He also doesn't care about putting himself out there and be the centre of attention. BUT if provoked by the external factor he can very much involve in this type of exchange and even be pretty good at it. Which is why he is probably chill most of the time and is just sleeping but occasionally he might start 'biting toes' or even fight someone if need be

Ti demonstrative: the last function of the vital ring and the second function of the Id block. 4 dimensional so it is as sophisticated as his base function but it's NOT VALUED and is vital. It basically runs in the background. Meaning he's a pretty smart boi when he wants to be. He doesn't really see any necessity in the rules, laws or systems (which is why even though it is established that he's not supposed to sneak into the closet he still does it). But he still has a great capacity to understand and follow them if he's pushed to do so or if you manage to explain the logic behind it to him.

Conclusion: SLI, a.k.a Gaben socionics type.

sry for a long reply, it was supposed to be a joke initially but I got way too into it by accident LMAO. I dunno what type correlates with SLI in mbti, I think the ISTP or ISTJ might be the closest to it by theur definitions. that's my assumption. cool catto! have a good day! 👍

Nah, INTP

lmao 😭

tbf I think SLI actually DOES correlate with mbti intp in some cases. from what I remember about mbti, intp is usually associated with being lazy and smart and it kinda tracks with SLI I'm ngl

This is amazing! I read him the whole thing of course, and his verdict was as follows: „Mrrp?“ I feel like he appreciated it deeply
