My sister's cat is also named Millie! Except she's a grey long hair instead of a tortie. Hopefully yours is behaving herself better than ours lol
Someone linked the RAADS test, and I got this.
I’m not able to afford any form of diagnosis. I feel weird though, like I don’t know if I answered the questions in the way I was supposed to?
When I’ve talked to shrinks, they’ve said I don’t have the rigid interests/hyperfixation and thus wasn’t autistic.
