Garfield by Jim Davis for May 15, 2024

Says the cat.

Odie’s answer lost something in translation.

Yes you are Garfield.

But do you know?

Cats are patient and thoughtful creatures. Someday they’ll figure out the secret of how the can opener works, and then mankind is doomed.

Odie says yes, Garfield says No. Just can’t trust translators these days…..

Garfield: Of course we cats are not plotting to take over the world and make humans and dogs our slaves…I mean, no we are not plotting anything against dogs.

Who should I believe? Odie or Garfield? Garfield seems oddly suspicious for some reason.

I think cats are plotters by nature. Whereas dogs are always curious.

Sometheeng is lost in translation here.

Are we sure this question wasn’t sent in by Jon?

You’re not really paranoid, “They” really are out to get you. Yep… yes, indeedy.

Of course it isn´t, it´s plotting against EVERYONE!

Of course the cat is, it is a cat after all.

Denial won’t get you very far in life, Garfield.

Garfield takes the “Who are you gonna believe, me or your lying eyes” approach.

“OF COURSE NOT”

(imagines a different version of this part of the dialogue of this cartoon)

NO

Odie’s reaction… “What?!”

Cats don’t plot.

They scheme.

Unreliable narrator/translator!

Garfield would never sell out a comrade like that.

If it is Garfield it is possible

I think Odie is warning us.

In a comic, yes it is.
