Mazel tov to all the regulars here on the Garfield comment section on GoComics.com, you make this comic all the more enjoyable and I appreciate you more than you know, celebratory mention’s to:
It never fails; as his birthday approaches Garfield worries about getting older, but on the actual date he’s too happy celebrating to be concerned about his age.
I was stationed overseas when Garfield first appeared. My aunt used to send me newspaper clippings that she thought I would like. I remember she sent me the first Sunday comic and commented that she thought that Garfield would be the next Snoopy. Turns out she was right.
Congratulations on another orbit around the sun (or another year’s extension of your syndication contract). I wish real life cats could share in your longevity. None of my cats ever made it past 19.
Happy Birthday, Garf! You’ve been my favorite comic since I was three years old! I’m 21.75 now and you have inspired me to make comics of my own. You have also taught me to have a sense of humor, so thank you, Garfield. May you live to inspire even more generations of comic lovers everywhere!

Hey Garfield, old friend, they made our birthday a National Holiday. (Sure took them long enough to figure out how special we are!)

Best wishes to my 2nd favorite cartoon cat as he celebrates his 21st birthday for the 24th time!

Garfield is amazingly active for a cat his age. Ours is only nineteen and even the Red Dot can coax only a few desultory swats from her.

He apparently saves up all his physical activity for this once-a-year event — or did he just eat a little too much of his catnip birthday cake?
