Official synopsis Publisher
Welcome to the author’s world in which this story is based upon. Happy, sad, funny. Talking kitties and teddy bears. A world in which reality can become something more if one listens closely.
A book that needs to be read today to fully enjoy the happiest of books when the sequel follows. As author Alec Gould would say, “Welcome to my world. Enjoy. “What do you mean, what number am I on?
Excerpt:
“You know, what number life. 1, 2, 3 or higher?”
“First off, we never discuss that. Second, we never dwell on that. Third, and this you should know, one should never waste their lives dwelling on matters they cannot do anything about. What number life am I on? It does not matter to you, nor to me. It only matters that we enjoy life as we do. With one another, with love.”

Readers fifteen to one hundred fifteen will find this delightful, heart-warming story difficult to put down. Filled with laughs, happy tears, heartache, more happy tears and more laughs, this page turner will resonate with many and leave you with a smile. Due to reader feedback, Alec listened and wrote Scratching for Wisdom. Yes, more antics of these four favorite kitties and their big brother Ted-D.
“The manner in which Gould has Don anthropomorphize* both Alec and Ted-D is consistently touching and will doubtless strike a chord with the cat owners who are the book’s natural audience.” – Kirkus Reviews
anthropomorphize*: To give human characteristics to a pet or such. Example: Winnie-the-Pooh.
