That must be one strong squirrel.

The squirrel is finally getting revenge on Odie

I always wondered what happened to Slappy Squirrel…..

That’s one strong squirrel

Notice panel #3! Odie is REALLY commited to show Garfield! :)

Yes, and also the tail in #2… :)

Odie’s bark is definitely worse than his bite.

The squirrels are arming themselves? We’re all in trouble now

Revenge of the squirrel.

well there is a game squirrel with a gun so a rake isn’t that farfetched

Must be a red squirrel. They are the most aggressive.

Gah! How is the squirrel lifting a rake?!

That squirrelly squirrel has gone nuts!

I wonder where Dug from “Up” is during all of this?

Shouldn’t Odie be going “Yipe! Yipe! Yipe! Yipe!”?

Attack of the giant mutant squirrel eh.

I know how this story goes.

The squirrels torment Odie until one of the squirrels steps on the rake, knocking him out. Odie, filled with compassion, takes the squirrel inside and cares for him until he recovers, even extending his paw in an effort to make peace. They agree and Odie becomes friends with the squirrels, eventually stuffing Garfield’s top half into a tree.

aww⠄⠄⠄ he just wants to give Odie a back scratch

That little guy’s been taking some special squirrel vitamins.

Why don’t dogs pick on something their own size? I guess we all know the answer to that.

An embarrassment to their household for sure.

Last two dogs we had, both chihuahuas, had absolutely no interest in squirrels. They got along well with them.

Odie’s a wimp.

Wait…. that’s sad.

It is easier to be brave when you are distant from the danger.

A squirrel that can pick up and attack with a rake is certainly something to be feared.

You go, squirrel!! I’m on your side. Get some revenge.

I live by a very large park. People think it’s fun to sic their dogs on the squirrels. I’ve seen so many mauled and dying squirrels, suffering horribly. It’s really sad.

People are sick.

Garfield you help Odie get revenge of the squirrel

Are we sure that’s not Ed? The cat raised by squirrels who appeared from 7/2-6, 8-13/1985?

Fights back after damage

Actually, in places like the northeastern sections of the Russian Far East, the squirrels can be utterly vicious during their winter, when temperatures can range between -30F and -90F. There is almost no food during this period, and there are documented cases of squirrels devouring people’s hunting dogs in desperation of finding anything to eat (EDITED AND REPOSTED TO CORRECT A MISTAKE)

Ever notice how there are never screens on the windows in the comics, on TV or in movies? In real life, almost every window in the US has a screen.
