Garfield by Jim Davis for January 18, 2023

Hold on, writer. They’ll get back to you… eventually.

Angels?

Maybe there’s a fly on the wall, spying on Garfield and Odie.

Both of my cats do this as well. either they are stalking invisible birds, or squirrels! My calico hates squirrels as much as any dog does.

Are you sure there isn’t something there?

That is the great mystery.

They’re looking at Lyman.

It’s there… somewhere. Something only pets can see.

when he was president Reagan was asked by school children if he thought the White House was haunted. He told a story of one day he was walking around and suddenly his dog refused to go down one hallway, just stared at nothing.

“So I don’t know if the white house is haunted but my dog sure thinks it is.”

“Last night I saw upon the stair // A little man, who wasn’t there // He wasn’t there again today // Oh how I wish he’d go away!” A classic poem from long ago ….

To be fair, are we sure our pets aren’t just trolling us because they know it confuses us?

It must be from getting old.

one “brain” shared by both of them…quite SCARY!

Wait I see it too!

Made ya look!

Our little dog surveys the world from our bay window. When she sees something, she’ll start barking. Our Labrador will come over and join her even though he has no clue what she is barking at!

Wow, I guess even Garfield isn’t above looking at something that isn’t there. Do you think it might be an invisible pizza or an invisible pan of lasagna?

He hears a mouse eating something…

Greebles

Now I see it as well….

logically, it must be food

It’s there…

Jim Davis and all the money he makes for a comic that was never intended to be funny.

They can see dead people.

It remids me of my dog & cat: they are doing the same thing!! Oh sweet!!

Don’t worry, it’s just a ghost….

Our cat pulled that on me once. We’re on the couch where I’m eating ice-cream & watching a game while Fat Louie is dozing next to me. When he opens his eyes and suddenly looks up to the far corner of the ceiling. I look up to see what he’s glaring at, and I hear “Slurp, Slurp, Slurp”. I look down to see his face buried in my ice-cream. I never trusted him around my food again. It was a long time before I told that to my wife. I did respect the guile in him though.

Animals are so much more aware of their surroundings.

What are you lookin at

Nothing? Our Kitties and our Puppies are so perfect that they can see Angels.

Is it ghost? Termites? I guess we’ll never know.

Dogs can see ghosts. Cats, on the other hand, see faeries, so I don’t know what Garfield is looking at. (Ghosts and faeries don’t hang out together.)

My dog stares at me. I had other dogs who did the same. I think it’s their attempt at mind control. “Give me treat now.”
