Garfield by Jim Davis for September 24, 2023

Pooky is such a good listener, isn’t he?

Some people only have time for some people.

Who wants to finish Garfield’s saying in the last panel?

Also, I just realized…when did Garfield get a watch?

At least he gave Arlene two panels.

classic Garfield, only having time for himself.

next panel: pooky leave garfeild to his story

Dawww I love it when Garfield’s actually sweet.

Sometimes you have time for the people that matter the most.

This is more like me than I should probably admit

We all know who has first place in Garfield’s heart…

Look like Garfield finally someone who can talk to…Gabtastic!!!

OK, lay them on us, we’re all here to listen to your tales of joy or woe.

Garfield interacts with Pooky, because Pooky doesn’t talk back

I’m imagining Pooky thinking, “I wish my legs could work right about now.”

Pookie: oooh boy here we go again….

“Tried Havarti yesterday, for the first time on a ham sandwich. Sort of bland. Meh.”

(senses a cartoon worthy of expanding upon (with more panels and pieces of dialogue (including more contexts)))

He doesn’t have time sometimes?

That’s how I am too. I just want to have time to myself without anybody around to bother me.

Some people just want someone to listen

Oh, look at the time! I gotta get going!

Arlene and Garfield flirting in the first panel, but he’s thinking about Pookie?

Little Teddy answers, "yeah, yeah, yeah…

Garfield has a magic watch that only appears when he needs an excuse to leave.

Rude dude with a tude.

I like how he ducks out by glancing at his wrist watch. I guess he has it so he can know it’s time to sleep. NOT!

Where did his watch go?

Even the best listeners need an ear.

Pooky thinking: The minute hes not looking Im out of here
