Pearls Before Swine by Stephan Pastis for August 05, 2014

I was right!It is a tapeworm!Get the rotor-rooter, stat!

Technically, it is a boy.

Garfield won’t eat mice/rats, but a rat eating a cat seems so… so… what’s the word?… awkward?

Rat was trying to protect Stephan, as Garfield said(after Rat said that he gets drawn by Pastis) “pastas? I love pastas”

I am surprised there is a lot of Lasagna, I thought all the Lasagna would be inside Garfield that is inside Rat

It’s the cat in the rat, the lawyers for the Dr. Seuss estate are on line four.

Must have happened on a Monday.

After digestion, Rat will have nothing left but a Big Cat Ass Trophy.

Either Pastis spent a lot of time with a Garfield treasury to get things just right or today’s strip is another guest appearance, this time by Jim Davis.

Rat really needs to chew his food before he swallows it.

Sooo.. Rat swallowed the cat that ate the lasagna?

Bravo sir, bravo.

Hummmmm… very interesting, but stupid ! Cat in a rat without a big hat.

Hey…Don’t be so quick to blame Rat! After all, Garfield’s insatiable appetite fot lasagna may have gotten him in trouble this time. Maybe Garfield climbed into Rat’s stomach for a few more mouthfuls"

HE ATE GARFIELD!!!!!!!

Davis’s lawyer was quick to call, Cartoon-Boy! I hope you can talk your way out of this, or you may be back practicing your old profession….

Lucky thing that the CAT scan caught that.

Now that’s just dead wrong!

He just appeared last week, in a strip, on July 30th

I still say it’s all gas!

Stephan has 3 phone lines!?!?

If Garfield is born again, will it be drawn by (the ghost of) Johnny Hart?

First belly laugh of the day!

Seems like Rat is getting a bit catty (or was that “Cathy”?)!

It’s a good thing Rat didn’t eat the dog. That would have been quite ODIous.

Who really believes anyone can out eat Garfield?

Why would Jim Davis sue? He should be accustomed to other people drawing Garfield.How many years has it been since he’s actually drawn a comic instead of having his staff draw it for him?

I would much rather see Heathcliff disappear. (See my comment at today’s “Heathcliff”)

Stephen has gone off the deep end. LOL MY favorite comic and this is part of the reason why LOL!

Bill Watterson did this!

Pastis can afford three phone lines?

That’s just purrrfect!

Rat went over there for dinner, and wound up eating pussycat.:(Take that, comic strip censors!)

Just when I think he has thought of everything, something else pops up in that mind. LOL!!

This may require a C-section

Fortunately Jon’s girlfriend is a veterinarian. But does Jon really want Garfield back?

So when’s the Garfield “Reboot”?

Uh oh!

xxx

That’s what he gets for not chasing mice.

Looks like Garfield is still o.k……………………….

omg. this is brilliant.

Oh my…

what the what, oh this will be interesting.

Its a Goy!

First time I ever laughed at Garfield. The humor of that strip escapes me.

Hopefully rats digestive juices will relieve us for Garfield forever. Or is this the birth of Bill the Cat? Berkeley Breathed would be a much better guest artiest!

You guys are crazy and I love it. Bwaa-haha!

As if Patsis gets so many calls that he needs a phone with three lines…

..........Uh….

I hope this strip ran on a monday

Y’know, Garfield’s pretty small if he can fit in rat’s stomach.
