    Greg Krueger has spent more than 15 years renovating his home not for his own comfort, but for that of his cats. He transformed it, in fact, into a giant feline playground, with elaborate tunnels, fun platforms, aerial walkways and 38 openings of various shapes - a heart, a Charlie Brown head and even the state of Minnesota.

    "I love trails, paths, and of course cats - said the man, who lives in St. James, Minnesota -. And so I joined these passions together ".

    Thus, his four lucky cats can run to any room through beyondand 90 meters of walkways. And they can sneak into tons of hiding places, all with adequate lighting and padding.

    Over time, however, his mission of transformation has become a real obsession, so much so that it has prompted him to visit a doctor. In fact, the man was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome, a disorder related to autism and commonly considered a "high functioning" form of the autism spectrum.

    Individuals with this syndrome present with persistent impairment of social interactions, repetitive and stereotyped behavior patterns, very narrow activities and interests. Krueger, precisely because of what it allowed him to achieve, does not consider his form of autism an impairment, but a blessing: "obviously - he explains - my house wouldn't have been like this if I didn't have Asperger's ”.
