“Cats & Puppies” is a heartfelt tribute to my mom, Lenoir, wrapped in humor and love, Narrated by her oldest son... ME! Through a series of childhood stories... both funny and touching... I share how her wisdom shaped my understanding of family, faith, and laughter. Each chapter blends genuine life lessons with a fully scored musical back drop making it impossible for the listener to only hear one chapter. Ultimately, it’s an invitation to reflect on our own family stories, with all the love, faith, and laughter that come with them. This will be an audio book you will never forget.

This book made me feel like I was having a conversation about life with my best friend. The way the audible was read was great. The background music the easy way he explained the perspective of young boys and mothers was great!!!!!

This story helps many adult children to understand what love peeking through pain looks like. Griff tells all the business and it literally can help someone if they are willing to lock in and pick up the gems!!! Great job! Honestly, it kinda made me miss my mama (her birthday is tomorrow 4/8) Thanks brother!!

This is such an awesome love story to his mom.

When you hear the title Cats and Dogs, you’d think it’s a children’s story but it’s not. The way Dwayne Griffin breaks down the life of a ‘cat’ and a ‘dog’ is so unexpected and so eye‑opening that I won’t even reveal it here. You’ve got to get your own copy and hear it for yourself. It made me stop and say, ‘Wow… really?’

As a young man raised by a beautiful, strong queen, this book hit home. It speaks to our struggles, our growth, and the lessons we carry into manhood. It’s inspirational, honest, and full of real wisdom.

And just when you think you know where the story is going, there’s a moment so funny and so surprising that you’ll have to rewind it. That twist alone is worth the listen. Highly recommended.”

What stood out most was how he took the title Cats and Dogs and turned it into a real‑life lesson that hits deep.
