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.

Sound familiar? , "Going to the vet occupies 49 pages (many in full, vibrant color) in the center of the 240 pages of hilarity. You will laugh until you cry....The vet visit is only part of the hi-jinx in this new book. You'll laugh at kitty as he deals with the cone of shame and food thievery by the kitten. Several of the vignettes include antics involving the grumpy neighbor and many include various dogs and birds. Those and all the other line-drawn comics are totally relatable if your home is graced by the presence of a cat." -- The Cat on my Head "Laugh-out-loud funny like all of Tofield's work, this book features 240 pages of hilarious new gags and adventures featuring Simon's Cat and his friends....This book will delight cat lovers, and makes a great stocking stuffer." -- The Concious Cat " Simon's Cat Off to the Vet and Other Cat-astrophes just might relax you the next time you embark on a journey to the vet with your cat(s)!...It is evident from all of the Simon's Cat creations, that they are all labors of love, brilliantly orchestrated by an incredibly talented man, who, like the rest of us, simply LOVES HIS CATS!" -- Cat Chat with Caren and Cody "Whether you are already a fan of Simon's Cat or new to him, you are in for a treat with this latest book of Simon's Cat stories and gags." -- Cat Talk " Simon's Cat: Off to the Vet ...is an energetic romp Tofield renders artfully in pen and ink." -- Covered in Cat Hair "This is bound to be a popular gift choice for the holidays whether for the cat owners in your life or for your veterinarian." -- PerPETually Speaking "I've spent my whole life with cats, so Mr. Tofield's comics make me smile before I even open the book." -- Journey of a Bookseller Praise for Simon's Cat: "Cat lovers will adore this and will nod in recognition of real-life cat behavior; cartoon fans will delight in Tofield's graceful skill in capturing the slinkiness, stealth, and self-absorption of our feline masters." -- Publishers Weekly , on Simon's Cat vs. the World "Fans are in for a treat as favorite characters, as well as new faces, run amok in a world full of surprises." -- Cat Fancy, "Laugh-out-loud funny like all of Tofield's work, this book features 240 pages of hilarious new gags and adventures featuring Simon's Cat and his friends....This book will delight cat lovers, and makes a great stocking stuffer." -- The Concious Cat " Simon's Cat Off to the Vet and Other Cat-astrophes just might relax you the next time you embark on a journey to the vet with your cat(s)!...It is evident from all of the Simon's Cat creations, that they are all labors of love, brilliantly orchestrated by an incredibly talented man, who, like the rest of us, simply LOVES HIS CATS!" -- Cat Chat with Caren and Cody "Whether you are already a fan of Simon's Cat or new to him, you are in for a treat with this latest book of Simon's Cat stories and gags." -- Cat Talk " Simon's Cat: Off to the Vet ...is an energetic romp Tofield renders artfully in pen and ink." -- Covered in Cat Hair "This is bound to be a popular gift choice for the holidays whether for the cat owners in your life or for your veterinarian." -- PerPETually Speaking "I've spent my whole life with cats, so Mr. Tofield's comics make me smile before I even open the book." -- Journey of a Bookseller Praise for Simon's Cat: "Cat lovers will adore this and will nod in recognition of real-life cat behavior; cartoon fans will delight in Tofield's graceful skill in capturing the slinkiness, stealth, and self-absorption of our feline masters." -- Publishers Weekly , on Simon's Cat vs. the World "Fans are in for a treat as favorite characters, as well as new faces, run amok in a world full of surprises." -- Cat Fancy

  • Simon;s Cat at it's best!

    Another wonderful book in the Simon's Cat series! You'll laugh out loud at the Cat's antics to avoid going to the vet. If you've ever owned a cat you'll probably recognize yourself in some of his owners various efforts to get the Cat into the carrier, the car, the vets office.
