Hi,
I'm new here so I thought it'd be good to introduce myself a little :blush:

I'm 19 years old and was diagnosed with autism 2.5 years ago, when I was just about to turn 17. For me, it was a huge relief to be diagnosed autistic as it showed that I am not a failed neurotypical person, but rather a neurodivergent person that's been trying to fit into the neurotypical world for way too long.

I have two cats whom I love :hearteyecat::hearteyecat: My dad says I'm on my way to become a crazy cat lady, a title I'm proud of :grinning:
 
welcome to af.png
 
Welcome.
Cats are so sweet. I was thinking about two furbabbies last nite.
Feel free to share pictures of them
 
I don't know about those Scandinavians... they are wily and cunning. :neutral:


I'm just kidding, I'm also from there. :) Welcome to the forum.
 
Hi, welcome! :)

I do like cats and think they're adorable but I currently have dogs and no cats. But there are many animal lovers here :)
I post pictures of my dogs all the time.

I'm Hispanic-American but I'm very interested in Scandinavian culture and music, which I would be happy to continue to learn more about, if you would like to share!
@Forest Cat has already been a huge help for me with this!

I hope you like it here! Most of us are friendly.

Thank you! :)


Thanks!
Agreed. This might not be what you need to hear… but I'd recommend everyone to get furbabies :hearteyecat:

I'm not ready to show pics of them just yet, but maybe one day! :)


Hi, miao :cat:

At one time, l had two small dogs and two cats, it was hilarious. It was a animal tango line when they started following each other around.

Hej :) Glad you like it here! Are you from Norway? I've actually never been to Norway (even though only live 2.5 hrs from the Norwegian border) but would love to go there sometime.

Hi, thanks! I'm sure I'll like it here :)

I love dogs too, definitely gonna keep an eye open for pics of your dogs.

I love talking nearly as much as I love animals. Feel free to ask (or not to ask) me anything about Scandinavia and I'll try my best to answer it together with the other Scandinavians on here… I already know one (hey @Forest Cat)

Ja, I'm a norrbagge ;) I can almost see the border from my window so I'm always close to my dear neighbors, the Swedes. Ha en trevlig kväll där borta. (Have a nice evening over there).

Thanks, yes, l corrected it. :)
 
Hi and welcome, I am in the UK, was just thinking we're in some ways similar because in UK we have Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England. And you guys have Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway. Though we must be much smaller than Scandinavia I guess. Wow my geography is bad. I have a cat too or as she might say, I have a human... shes great.
