Through the years I've collected nearly every Garfield book that's been released, numerous stuffed animals and figurines, household items like mugs and teapots, and loads of Christmas ornaments. (In the early days before the strips were collected in book form my mom would clip them out of the newspaper and glue them in notebooks for me. I still have those notebooks and will always treasure them!)
While I'm not adding to my collection as frequently as I used to, every now and then a piece catches my eye and I just have to have it, which was exactly the case earlier this week when I stumbled upon this Enesco figurine on eBay.
Other than Garfield himself his beloved teddy bear Pooky is my favorite character. Pooky brings out the soft side of Garfield and I always look forward to the strips that feature them together. This music box showing them dancing to I Could Have Danced All Night is so ridiculously adorable I couldn't resist. I just can't help but smile when I look at it.
Tomorrow is Garfield the Cat Day (and his 43rd birthday!)

I love Garfield too and love your figurine. In fact at this very moment I am reading the strip in the newspaper. Yes, I still prefer the news in paper form!
That was a pawsome find :)
Purrfect for your collection.

Garfield is adorable. Happy Birthday Garfield!

I'm a huge fan of Garfield too. When we still got the newspaper that was the first cartoon I read each morning.
Have a fabulous day and weekend. ♥
Garfield is always the coolest dude!
What a great find! I used to read Garfield all the time as a kid.
Very nice find. :)
I love Garfield! Like you mentioned, he's pretty darn relatable. And this music box is so purrfect!
Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.
Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend, Mudpie. ♥
What's not to love about Garfield other than he's not ME? Too bad we didn't know you when TW found 3 Garfield figurines at a flea market and auctioned them off on the CB.
That is adorable! No wonder you had to have it!
I've loved Garfield since I was a kid. I have a bunch of items I got when I was young. I have a music box that looks like a set of drums with a mouse on top of the cymbal that twirls around when you play it.
