Whiskers, Woes & Wisdom
Seven Satirical Animal Farces for the Modern Human
By Benoni Samuelson
Step into a world where goats run for office, hedgehogs give investment advice, and hamsters stage dramatic exits—Whiskers, Woes and Wisdom is a hilarious collection of seven sharp, satirical tales that mirror our modern follies through the antics of the animal kingdom.
Written in the witty voice of Benoni Samuelson, this collection blends farce with fable, poking fun at ambition, vanity, hustle culture, and self-help obsessions. Each story features a different animal stepping into a human role, with predictably absurd consequences and surprisingly poignant truths.
Perfect for adults or all ages navigating life’s chaos, loneliness, and irony, these stories offer laughter, reflection, and just enough wisdom to keep you turning the pages. Whether you’re a cat who secretly dreams of quitting your job or a donkey tired of motivational quotes, this book will make you feel seen, and snort out loud.
Seven animals. Seven farces. One wildly relatable journey.
