The Reserved Tactician (SVDT) ♟️

Your cat is a strategist in fur — calm, calculating, and always in control. SVDTs are independent felines who operate with quiet authority. They don’t need constant attention or affection, but they’re fully in tune with their surroundings and the people in them. You may not realize they’ve entered a room until they’ve already settled in the exact spot they planned to claim. Wary of change, they prefer to stick to what they know. They won’t leap into new experiences without thorough observation, but once confident, they navigate new situations with precise composure. Their dominant personality emerges in how they manage shared spaces — not aggressively, but through subtle posturing, territorial preference, and clever manipulation of routines. Emotionally, SVDTs are stable and self-contained. They don’t overreact or act out; instead, they quietly reposition themselves or withdraw when overstimulated. They’re the kind of cat that responds to chaos by calmly retreating — then reemerging exactly when things have cooled down.
