Jon: Cheer up, Garfield. It's only a birthday.
Garfield: Not helping.
Jon: There'll be cake.
Garfield: Helping.
Jon: With lots and lots of candles!
Garfield: Not helping again.
Thanks for the happy birthdays. @pcolli – could have done without hearing that. Here perky is a good thing. My last name is Perkins and I love cats – hence the nickname.

Why not just use those number-shaped candles? A 3 and a 4 will work just fine rather than 34 individual candles.

More cake and less candles please.

Jon is turning Garfield into a manic-depressive feline.

The drumbeat of attacks on seniors continues in this strip. A class action lawsuit is in the offing.

What about birds on the cake with mice around it to squash?

It’s my birthday today – Garf and I are Gemini cats. I think I will have a few more candles on my cake though.
Happy Flag Day everyone!

He should serve Garfield lasagna or pizza with candles on it. Or serve both and cake with candles on the cake. That would definitely help! lol

common Garfield! Just rip the candles into shreds and take the pieces of wax out and eat the cake. EASY!

Don’t wish to put a downer on things but when I grew up in Australia to “perk” meant to vomit.

Maybe it’s because Garfield’s cake will have 34 candles.(And yes, I counted the years.)
