Garfield by Jim Davis for January 13, 2023

“Then stop taking me with you!”

Pooky’s always a scene stealer, isn’t he just ?

how can it be that she’s never met Pooky before?

Pooky’s got a magnetic personality.

Why doesn’t Garfield tell Arlene the truth since a lot of girls like stuffed animals?

it’s not a teddy bear, it’s a emotionnal relief baggage

You didn’t know this Arlene?? Where have you been?? I am shocked

I still have my teddy from since I was a baby. Lost most of his fur but still…..

That looks like a teddy bear to me.

Arlene seems to likes that, Garfield. Now you’re like catnip to her!

Pooky was just curious and lonely.

BUSTED!

I hope you apologize to Pooky later on, Garfield!

Years ago I bought one ( a Pooky Bear ) for girl friend of mine : )

I used to have two by my bed….but considering I got them from my ex once we split up it felt too weird to keep them there

Arlene thinks it’s cute. As referenced above, she already met him and thought it was cute then, she is just probing a bit now for fun.

I would’ve said yes. Amplify the cute factor.

My grandma called me Pooky when I was a little girl. This was before Garfield was created.

It’s Friday the 13th!!

Garfield must have a robot Pooky.

don’t deny the bear. plush ursine companions are real!!!!

vary funny

How could you! Garfield? Denying Pooky is unforgivable…

I thought Arlene knew Garfield had Pooky

For me, everybody knows better. I have stuffed Lions…

Garfield just had his masculinity stripped more than the estrogen that is created by his high body fat percentage.

My cat drags socks all over the house. It’s amusing.

Denying it won’t make it any better for you, Garfield.

So then – to whom does that one belong?

That’s no way to talk to your Pookie!

nice save %

nice try but…NOPE it won’t work.

I certainly follow Garfield, doesn’t everybody…

Hmm, usually chicks dig bears.

“AND STOP FOLLOWING ME!”

(imagines a different version of this dialogue in this cartoon)

I WAS JUST TELLING THIS ONE TO STOP FOLLOWING ME

She’s breaking the fourth wall!

Arlene is jealous of Pooky.

Don’t be too embarrassed, Garfield. I still have a teddy bear too. They’re cute.

lol

Sorry Garfield, you’re not fooling anyone!

Garfield’s just looking for the “BEAR” necessities of life. ;-)
