Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Simon's Cat" in English language version.
The origins of Simon's Cat are typical story of internet success: Simon Tofield was an animator learning the programming language Adobe Flash. […] "The breakthrough came for me after the first two or three films were out and a book company came along and said would you like to turn it into a book. It was always my dream to illustrate a book never mind create one." The move meant Tofield could stop doing Simon's Cat in his spare time between commercials – he'd worked on Paddington Bear for Marmite and on the Tesco 'dodo' ads.
Simon, who works for London-based Animation Studio Tandem Films, explains that the films are based on three of his cats, all moggies.
