Time for another story featuring Garfield! Everyone's favorite lazy fat cat! As well as Odie, Jon, Lyman, Orson, Roy, Wade, and all their friends! So without further delay, TIME FOR THE SHOW!


Our story opens today as we see Garfield walking in Jon's bedroom.

"I wonder what Jon keeps in his drawer." He thought "Perhaps an embarassing photo of him at his prom."

Garfield used his front legs to open the drawer and found something inside of Jon's drawer.

"Hello, what's this old thing?" Garfield grabbed the found item "A teddy bear. A silly old looking teddy bear. I think I'll name him 'Pooky'."

Garfield put Pooky in his mouth and walked him around the house. He went past Jon who was reading the paper.

Jon turned around and saw Garfield carrying a teddy bear in his mouth.

"I did not see that." He chanted "I did not see that."

Just then, Lyman came to Jon.

"Hey Jon." Lyman waved to Jon "What's up?"

"It was Garfield." Jon stammered "He was carrying my old teddy bear in his mouth."

"Looks like your cat has found a friend." Lyman chuckled.

"Yeah, I guess even a cat like Garfield deserves a toy to cuddle with." Jon agreed.

"So, how about some dinner?" Lyman asked Jon "I'm starving."

"Sure Lyman." Jon said "I'll go get dinner started."

About an hour later, Jon finished making dinner. He was cooking steaks out on the barbeque.

"Alright Lyman." said Jon "Time to eat."

"Bout time." said Lyman "Boy am I starving."

Garfield kept walking around with Pooky and he saw Jon eating his food.

"Jon's eating dinner Pooky." Garfield held his bear "I'll take you over there to see it."

Garfield went into the kitchen and had Pooky walk on the table near Jon.

"GET AWAY FROM MY FOOD BEAR!" He snapped.

Garfield then put Pooky right down.

Jon was shocked "I just yelled at a teddy bear."

Garfield took Pooky back to the living room. He had to find another way to get Jon's dinner.

"Okay Pooky." He sat Pooky down "I need to get Jon's steak dinner and I need your help. With your help, I'll be eating that steak in no time. All I have to do is dress up like you, scare Jon into next week, and grab that steak."

Garfield pressed his finger and out popped and claw, which he used to open Pooky's back.

"Don't worry old buddy." He took the stuffing out of Pooky "I'll sew you back up once I get the steak."

Garfield climbed into Pooky's cotton-less body and was inside his body.

"This should work like a charm." Garfield started walking to the dining room on two legs.

"Boy Jon," said Lyman "This sure is some good steak. You really outdid yourself."

"Thanks." Jon said.

"I'm going to bed now." Lyman went to his bedroom.

"Night Lyman." Jon waved to his roommate.

When Jon was about to eat his steak, something tapped him on his shoulder.

"Yes Lyman?" Jon turned around to see Pooky.

Jon gasped. Pooky had all of a sudden come to life. He was left speechless. Unknown to him, Pooky was really Garfield in disuise.

Garfield (in Pooky's body) grabbed the steak and walked off with it.

Everything was silent until.

Jon screamed at the top of his voice "AAHHHHHHHH!"

As soon as Garfield ate the steak, he restuffed Pooky and sewed him back to perfect condtion and took Pooky to bed.

"Do you know why I love Pooky?" He looked at the readers "It is said that we are given two ears and one mouth so we can hear what the other one has to hear. Pooky has two ears and no mouth. That's why I love him."

Garfield then fell asleep with his new teddy bear, Pooky by his side.

THE NEXT MORNING...

Jon was at a local therapist to discuss the recent traumatizing incident.

"Let me get this straight Mr. Arbuckle," said the therapist "You say that you saw your cat's teddy bear eat your dinner last night?"

"It had a pretty big appetite for a teddy bear, let me tell you." Jon said to the therapist.
