Neither, they're just checking each other out.
Their version of us shaking hands

Cats do have pecking order fights. When they have them, it's pretty quick & over.
Sniffing is not the fight.

As Wally Cleaver used to say when he didn't know an answer:
"Search me". hahaha
I will watch this thread as I'm always trying in vain to figure my cats out :)
