Simon's cat


With over 25 million hits on Youtube, Simon's Cat has become an instant and highly lovable classic. This multi award winning animated series about a hungry cat that will stop at nothing in order to be fed was created by Simon Tofield, an English animator who was inspired by his own feline bundles of joy: Hugh, Jess and Maisie.

On 1 October, Tofield released his first book which is definitely a must have for every cat lover. It is filled with hilarious drawings featuring the calculating kitty on his eternal quest for food. Too bad you can't hear his heart-wrenching meow which I have to admit is my favorite part.

Never before has a cat been portrayed so deviously realistic and that is why I would like to conclude with the immortal words of Homer J. Simpson, "It's funny, 'cause it's true".
