Yes, catts like to be grown tightly packed into their pots. Repot, but keep them tight and put the new growth towards the center of the new pot.

I've noted several people asking for an opinion about re-potting. I know these need re-potting and probably should have been in new homes long ago....my question is: what to do with the 1st pic/plant with it growing down the side of the pot? Divide and Conquer? Or use the squeeze technique and bend it into a larger pot? The others probably should just be placed into a larger pot? I'd like to grow them larger so I could divide them at a later date and share with others on this board...that is if anyone would want another catt

The most important thing about repotting a catt is waiting for new root growth from the lead p-bulbs. It's fairly intimidating to repot these for the first time--I wasn't comfortable with doing it for like two years or so.
OK for the last two pics, but what about numero uno???? Bend it to fit?
Yes, soak it before repotting and give it a bend.
