Garfield by Jim Davis for May 21, 2011

The most beautiful SPLAT you could ever hear, Garfield.BTW, you’re wearing a most interesting looking garment there. ’

Plus you get a pasta dinner to celebrate you getting off that tree.

If Mrs. Feeney gets her wish Garfield will missthe fettucine by a mile.

That overhanging belly comes from all that pizza and fettuccine. Some cats never learn moderation. Can I have seconds of the 3 layer lasagna?

Two extra panels: (4) Him letting go of the branch; and (5) the FX word “SPOOSH”(in green letters) indicating his successful impact.

Have you ever seen a large, unneutered male cat from the rear? There are visible indications of the gender.

Speaking of kittens, we haven’t seen Nermal since a Sunday strip in 2008! (Is he still hiding behind that curtain?)

Hey Ya’ll! I’m betting this is a dream. I mean really, who goes through the trouble it would take to make and tote a huge vat of pasta (at just the right temperature!) to save Garfield, when you could flop a mattress beneath him? Ever hear the expression: “In your dreams!”? The only other option I can think of is Mrs. Feeney has a HOT vat of pasta below (do you really think she’s that evil?) But somehow, the voice seems ethereal, and Garfield does not directly address whoever is manning that vat. This feels like a dream to me. Hmmmmmm. I guess we’ll see.

Ah, nice idea! Could be the dog!

All I know is that he’s got my arms hurting. I’ll sure be glad when he gets down.

Nah. It`s the squirrel.

Repeat from yesterday, I have never seen a cat’s skeleton in a tree.

Garfield, use your nose to make sure that there is fettucine, make sure that it is not a trap

Oh no, he’s been up there so long, he’s hallucinating!!!

Raptured!!

Dreaming…
