Simon Tofield is an award-winning animator and cartoonist. He has had a lifelong interest in animals, beginning as a child, when his uncle gave him a plastic pond that quickly filled with wildlife. Simon was given his first cat when he was nine and now has four rescue cats, which are the mischievous inspiration for his work. He is the author of multiple Simon's Cat books, including Simon's Cat in Kitten Chaos and Simon's Cat vs. the World.
Simon's Cat: Off to the Vet has dozens of hilarious cartoons of
varying lengths . . . . The cartoons are about more than just
taking a reluctant cat to the vet (which involves a cardboard box
and perfect timing). There are cartoons about destroyed gardens,
destroyed bird feeders, destroyed clothes and destroyed furniture.
But there are also cartoons about the affection cats can show us,
and how we return the love . . . Every cat lover will love Simon's
Cat: Off to the Vet . . . and Other Cat-astrophes.

My reaction to each new Simon's Cat video or book is the same:
YAY!! In this brand-new collection, acclaimed cartoonist Simon
Tofield tackles every cat owner's nightmare: going to the vet. It
tells the story of how Simon's Cat seems to instinctively know a
trip to the vet is about to happen and the lengths he'll go to
avoid it, while long-suffering Simon is forced to try all kinds of
tricks to get him to cooperate. Sound familiar?

Whether you read it straight through or pace yourself with one or
two cartoons at a time, this is a book that will cheer the
gloomiest day. Add the videos, some snacks, a favorite beverage and
a cat on your lap--it's a little vacation in the middle of daily
life.
-- "Kings River Life Magazine"
Witty and wonderful, Simon's Cat: Off to the Vet is a treat for cat
lovers or anyone who loves laughter.-- "Midwest Book Review"
