Garfield by Jim Davis for April 03, 2019

would you mind, Garfield, if Odie twitched his charlie-horsed leg instead?

I’d choose a better role model, Odie!

Have we ever seen Garfield wag his tail ?

Well Garf, at least Odie’s tail does something beside drag on the floor and catch lint.

What? It doesn’t help if Odie has a good dream, Garfield?

What is Odie dreaming about with his tail wagging? A bone, playing ball?

But you have a tail

Better than the tail wagging the dog, I guess.

When the dream is that good, the tail-wag is a must!

Odie is so cute when he’s asleep.

My Boston Terrier doesn’t have much of a tail – a curly pig-like tail – but he still wags it from time to time.

That tail wagging is using way too much energy. If you want to be like Garfield, you have to conserve energy as much as you can.

Here is an interesting fact. Dogs wags their tails if they are excited to see you, though wagging their tail is a way of communication, and if they wag their tail at you, it is not always for good reason. If a cat wags their tail, and as with a dog, seeing a cat wag their tail tells you much, but seeing a cat wag theirs is not a good sign. If they do so, then they are most likely utterly annoyed, for example when a cat is on a table whilst visiting a veterinarian for inspection. Dogs and cats both make great pets, and while canines and felines share many similarities, they are mostly inverses of each other in various aspects.

Odie, that tail wag is SUCH a bad tell when you play poker.

odie to me is much cuter than Garfield!!

No, don’t listen to him odie! Stay active and do not gain weight!

Odie needs a better role model

Odie is an improved version.

Cats don’t wag their tails. They swish or twich.

The last time I saw Garfield wag his tail was 1996. https://garfield.com/comic/1996/07/02
