Comment on I just learned 37% of Americans fear vaccinating their dog will cause the dog to develop autism. 😐

  Why do you think it’s autism? One of my cats is mentally “special” as the vet told me after asking some questions. She couldn’t get any more specific. He’s a great cat and very happy.

    I’m half joking, but there’s a decent bit of autism in our house, and he fits in pretty well. He gets overstimulated pretty easy, exhibits a lot of self-soothing behavior, and doesn’t take cues well at all.
