Garfield by Jim Davis for August 21, 2022

It’s a kitty and a doggie pool!

I can see the U.S. Acres reference

According to physics that isn’t possible. You just can’t make a proper Wadetube reference without the wearer being Wade.

Beatnik Garfield?

Garfielf is 100x times fatter in weight compared to all of these characters. The pool’s water should be falling out of it because of him.

There is a 100% chance that all the animals are either Millennials or Gen Z, only that they’re animals and can’t use phones

Jon, get in your swimsuit and then inflate and fill the pool.

It’s rare to see Garfield smile when Nermal is around.

When I saw the gray cat standing I thought it was Nermal

He should have taken his clothes off in the yard.

A number. Yep… a number and a bigger pool.

why can’t he just inflate the pool in his swim trunks?

Cats that loves water? Now me has seen everything.

Now this one is a " riot " for sure : )

You know what would have been hilarious? If they’d drawn Lyman’s head among all the cats and dogs in the paddling pool.

Let this be a lesson to you, Jon. Always have a fence around your pool.

Nice to see Odie got in in the first batch….

If Jon is on a well, that water would still be bone-chilling cold.

You snooze, you lose.

Jim Davis’ version of ‘The Little Red Hen’. (“Who will help me pump up the pool?” And so on.

This is like the second time I see that big purple dog chain free. The title panel is also quite interesting

Oh Jon, you have only yourself to blame for this

Too slow Jon. Just to slow.

lots of new friends showed up.

Perhaps Jon should wear swim trunks BEFORE inflating and filling the pool. Also, see Wade’s inner tube. That gets a thumbs-up from me.

The same thing happened in one episode of M*A*S*H as I recall

That also happened in a Peanuts comic from the early 1950s as well.

Should have done the pool prep in your trunks. Or just jumped in while filling it.

Not speaking from experience or anything…

Phoenix?

I wonder if Garfield can absorb water with his fat stomach.

When they get out, they will have soaked up all the water…

How did purple dog get off his leash?

Garfield never apoologizes.

Should of filled it up in the bathing suit and been the first one in.

Jon, you’re gonna need a bigger pool!

Gotta inflate it while already in your shorts and lie in it as it fills…

Shoulda’ brought the pool closer to the hose, ARBINKLE! [sic]

Is that Nermal’s dad toward the end of the line?

Tip#1. Fill up the pool while you’re already in your bathing suit.

Those dogs and cats are some of the creepiest looking animals you’ll ever see.

Should have had his bathing trunks on while filling the pool so he could jump right in….But, hey, that’s Jon.

You snooze, you lose….

Next time, Jon… Have your swim trunks under your clothes.

Zany zoological pool party.

Id have had the swim trunks on while pumping up the pool.

Hey! That yellow cat has Wade Duck’s innertube!

Uh, Jon, you change first, THEN put the water in…

Maybe next time, you should put on your swimsuit first, fill the pool, and instead of running back to turn off the water, just put a crimp in the hose to keep the water from flowing. Either that or keep the sprinkler near by and hook it up to that to water the lawn. Then get in the pool.

He needs a bigger pool.

There is a real simple solution to Jon’s dilema. Get into his swimsuit before he fills the pool. Then he doesn’t have to leave it unattended.

ID have thought Nermel would have been punted by Garfield by now.

He should of had his swimsuit on while pumping

Jon shoulda known to be ready!
