Garfield, the iconic orange tabby cat, is characterized by his overweight stature, laziness, sarcasm, and love for food, especially lasagna. He despises raisins and anchovies, and often mocks Jon Arbuckle, his nerdy owner, and Odie, the dimwitted dog. Despite his selfishness, he cares for Odie, Jon, and his teddy bear, Pooky. Garfield's disdain for Odie is evident in his tendency to mock and harm him. He also dislikes Nermal for claiming to be cuter and resents Jon's attention towards him.
