In this brand-new book we see Simon's Cat face any feline's most dreaded scenario: heading to the vet.

“Guaranteed laugh out loud material, Tofield’s secret is successfully relating Simon’s cat to any cat. Simon’s cat is certainly the Snoopy of the cat world.” ―Chicago Tribune

“Simon’s Cat Off to the Vet . . . and Other Cat-astrophes is a sweet, humorous look at feline behavior from an author with a thorough understanding of this subject matter . . . . An excellent holiday gift for any cat fancier.” ―Phyllis O’Beollain, Examiner.com

Also check out Simon’s Cat in Kitten Chaos and Simon’s Cat vs. the World.

In the last five years, Simon’s Cat has become a global phenomenon. Star of thirty-nine films, which have been watched over 500 million times, and winner of a dozen major industry awards, Simon’s Cat has captured the hearts of a worldwide audience. In this brand-new book we see Simon’s Cat face any feline’s most dreaded scenario―he’s off to the vet. And he’s not at all happy about it.

Sharing its theme with the first-ever full-color Simon’s Cat feature animation, funded by a record-breaking Indiegogo campaign and due to be released alongside the new book, Simon’s Cat Off to the Vet . . . and Other Cat-astrophes is packed with over 240 pages of hilarious new gags and adventures featuring our favorite furry friend and his companions―both old and new.

Says Tofield: “Taking my naughty cat to the vet is one of the most requested film ideas from our fans. It was because of this that I started work on a new film and book based on the crazy situations that arise during these trips! A visit to the vet can be quite a stressful time in real life for both cats and their owners, however my goal is to bring out the comedy, and introduce a cast of extra characters for Simon’s Cat to meet, as he gets his claws into his new surroundings!”

Editorial Reviews

Review

"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.
"
― About.com, included in Fall Book Round-Up

"Whether you are 5 or 95, this is sure to draw a smile from you."
― Sharon Damon, Examiner.com

"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?

"
― Catster, #1 Catster Obsession

"Witty and wonderful, Simon’s Cat: Off to the Vet is a treat for cat lovers or anyone who loves laughter."
― Midwest Book Review

"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

Simon's cat is obviously penned by someone who knows cats very well. Illustrating both the funny and maddening sides to living with these furry little psychopaths, you just gotta love it.

If you have cats, you can’t help but find these cartoons relatable and hilarious. But even if you’ve only worshiped cats from afar, I think you will still be very entertained by Simon’s cat(s). No words are even necessary to follow these antics. Regardless what language you might speak, if you’ve ever experienced cats, you’ll enjoy this book.

Apparently this book of cartoons went out long before the video. It is not the same as the video, which has a full story line. I love Simon, but this was a disappointment.

I love the Simon's Cat videos and decided to purchase this book (my first one of his books) Once I got used to the difference in format I enjoyed it so much. I think this is great for any cat lover. I plan on buying another copy or two as gifts

I bought this for my Mum on I think Mothers day. She loved this book and said that it was even funnier that the Garfield books she used to like reading. Unlike my brother she has not read the series of books that this book is a spinoff from, but said that they were exactly like being a cat owner.

Mis hijos son muy fans de Simon's Cat y para que no estén todo el día enganchados viéndolo en pantalla compramos un par de estos libros.
Sus dibujos son en blanco y negro (unos poquitos coloreados) y hay muchos!! Toda la esencia de los vídeos en estos libros y mi familia se lo pasa en grande con ellos. No hay texto, aptos pues para todo el mundo.
Volveremos a adquirir más!

Having met Simon's Cat on Internet first, I was afraid that the book might be redundant. Instead the whole family enjoys reading it and analyzing all the details of the lovely pictures. We all love it and suggest it to anyone who loves animals and a good laugh.
