Plot

What's the story about?

Plot: Life couldn't be sweeter for Garfield. Parked on a comfortable barcolounger in front of the TV, feasting on his favorite dish—lasagna—he's the master of his universe. That is, until his owner, Jon, takes in sweet but dimwitted pooch Odie, turning Garfield's perfect world upside down. Now, Garfield wants only one thing: Odie out of his home and life! But when the hapless pup disappears, Garfield, maybe for the first time in his life, feels responsible. With an uncharacteristic amount of energy and courage, Garfield manages to pull himself away from the TV, and spring into action. He's on a mission to save Odie....and get back to his beloved barcolounger!
