Product Description
It's every cat's worst nightmare: the cat carrier comes out, and the trip to the vet begins. But the irrepressible Milton handles the ordeal with style, and ultimately shows the vet who's boss. Cat lovers of all ages will surely see their won feline in Milton's antics. And children will easily relate to the fear of going to the doctor and will share Milton's relief when he realizes that it's not that bad after all!

 Not as good as just plain "Milton" February 6, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
We received the original "Milton" as a gift and loved reading it to our child, so we ordered "Milton Goes to the Vet" (MGTTV). What a disappointment! The illustrations are cute but the "story" is not as engaging. Not that there's a ton of action in the original "Milton," but it really offers a unique voice for the black-and-white hero. I thought my 2-year-old could have written MGTTV - it just didn't have the same cleverness, and Milton had lost his charming cat personality. We actually sent MGTTV back to Amazon b/c neither my husband nor I enjoyed reading it to our daughter. The original Milton, on the other hand, is a 5-star book!
 inside the mind of a neurotic house cat January 31, 2003

The author does a great job of capturing the thought process of a neurotic cat who doesn't want to go to the vet. The illustrations help to convey the silliness of Milton's dread of riding in the car and being examined by the vet. Anyone who has tried to force a cat into the cat carrier and bring him to the vet will laugh out loud when reading this funny little book.
Milton - for kids and grownups too October 17, 2001

The bright bold colours make a terrific background for Milton the black and white cat. Milton is the narrator, and anyone who's ever had a cat will smile knowingly when Milton, upon seeing that his cat carrier has been brought out, tries to run and hide --- but ends up sighing, "They always find me in the end". His expressions as he waits anxiously in the vet's office are beautiful. I've often thought about writing a book about the "adventures" of my own black and white cat, Axel --- but Milton IS the book I would have liked to write!! I plan to get the whole series AND all the accessories.
