I’d be surprised if this cartoon hasn’t been done by someone but I purposefully didn’t look so it wouldn’t impact my vision. For the unaware, the “grumpy cat” on the left is the original grumpy one – Garfield the Cat. The unsuspecting feline is the internet meme sensation Grumpy Cat.
I would think I might have issues with someone else taking my gig too. Now I need to figure out what that gig is.

That’s funny. I was JUST thinking about the grumpy cat image today and how I’ve noticed it’s popped up everywhere. What I was really wondering is who’s cat it is and if there are royalties involved.
Not sure. Maybe the guy I linked to in the post is the originator but you can never tell.
You so need a feature image for this one. I cannot Pin it. 🙁
Thanks try it now. That is the issue. It used to set the first image as the featured image. Wonder if I need to go back and reset it for all my posts.
Another reason for me to redesign my site.
I’m the only one on the planet who hadn’t heard of ‘Grumpy Cat’. Go figure.
If I were Garfield I’d be careful. Looks like G.C. might be the type to carry around a sock full of batteries.
🙂
Someone who watches Wes Anderson movies probably has no idea what goes on in pop culture references.
Even I’ve heard of Grumpy Cat and I’m older than dirt. Way cool. I love Garfield.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
No…I have seen some older dirt..hahah j/k
Thanks Sandee
Garfield is about to treat Grumpy Cat 2 like he was a Monday!
Good thing I picked the right day to post
I like it
I am a fan of both grumpy kitties! I tend to mimic their disposition on many days…
Faythe, remind me not to get on your bad side..haha
I haven’t heard of grumpy cat either. Maybe he could have a cat-off with Garfield.
Not many cats in Wombania?
There’s Zoe, but she’s camera shy. Or maybe just afraid of us.
Well get her out front and center
I recognize Garfield (takes me back to our kids toys and books) but I don’t follow internet cats much and the other one is new to me. The new cat on the block looks too much like a dog.
Grumpy cat seems to be all over FB and G+ in different memes
First time I’ve seen this new grumpy cat. Guess I’m not as ‘with it’ as I thought !
Maybe because you are a dog person
Grumpen it up old school!
That’s how I roll.
Aren’t all the cats a lil Grumpy..they are they are 😉
but haven’t heard of this new one and after reading your write up i looked for it and it was everywhere.
i suspect its an alien Grumpy to destroy Garfield’s regime.
No the alien grumpy is ALF and he hates cats.
Yeah, Its Funny. I have seen that cat in the cartoon news papers with other some funny characters.
OMG, that was way too funny.
What do you expect from me?
Funny, poor Garfield losing fans to Grumpy. Can’t really blame him for his actions.
Blame the victim huh? haha
Even I have heard of Grumpy cat. He’s evwrywhere. He gets reposted as much as Maxine.
And passed around more than a hollywood starlet
who’s maxine ? 😳
uh oh
You started all this. Now you have to tell him who Maxine is.
Maxine is the old biddy on the Hallmark cards
Would love to see a movie made out of this 5-star plot 😀
It would be a new after school special.
That is awesome I never even thought about that.
That’s what I do. Go for the obvious joke you haven’t thought of.
Grumpy cat #2 is a munchkin Siamese mix cat. her Real name is “tartar sauce” but they just call her tard. she was a kitten when that first video was uploaded and has done numerous commercial spots since becoming an internet meme. She has a brother who looks like he’s a jackass. The cats belong to a family that live in Tucson Arizona.
A jackass? Wonder who Tartar sauce’s mom was hanging around with. haha
This is awesome. First time Garfield’s been funny in decades. Jim Davis needs to hang it up.
awww…I have a sweet spot for the old grumpy one….
Garfield is one of my all time favorites. I grew up on the cartoon but his time has passed. 9 lives are up!
haha…not if he can still bring in the (pizza) dough
I love this Bearman!
Thanks D
Somebody’s gonna really hate this Monday.
Probably me…
The owners of the Grumpy the Cat (aka Tartar Sauce) have a blog on Tumblr as well as a nifty store.
The link is http://www.grumpycats.com
And the quote on the header is “I had fun once, it was awful”.
And Garfield is seriously old school, and wasn’t really a grump.
Extreme laziness manifests as grumpiness
What the heck is a meme? I keep reading that word everywhere.
It’s all those pictures of people or stars and they keep putting funny messages and other’s pic it up and they put their own message.
Here is an example http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/lonely-computer-guy-net-noob
Okay then, I don’t write comics most of the time. I write memes. 🙂
You write memes in comic format
I’m more inventive than I ever thought.
Three strikes and the new grumpy cat will be OUT!
He has 6 more lives
I think Grumpy Cat Mk2 deserves more than 3 strikes. He has earned it. Then overdose him on Lasagne Garfield.
Go Garfield, Go Garfield, Gooooooo Garfield!!!
I never heard of grumpy cat till now. But now when I think of it…I’ll remember your version.
Good I like that.
Grumpy Cat seems grumpier than Garfield. I wonder what Grumpy Cat would do to Odie?
He would be like Odie who?
Grumpy Cat’s going to get the Grumpy Bat.
Oh yeah he is
Well drawn, Bearman! Both are immediately recognisable. :`)
Frankly I’ve never been able to fathom what people find attractive or even funny in Garfield. The Grumpy Cat however is very funny. :`D
I think Garfield appeals to the younger me. Easy to read and get the humor.
my money is on Garfield, he’s badass
Odie says: “….”
I think Odie always has peanut butter in his mouth and that is why he doesn’t talk.
At least he’s not mailing him to Abu Dali like he did with Nermal. (Yes I was a huge Garfield fan in the 80’s). 🙂
haha I forgot about Nermal
I never knew that Garfield was violent. I use to watch the cartoons back in the day. I remember Pee-wee Herman and Hey Vern, It’s Ernest! (Ernest only last one season… It seemed like it never ended).
Great times.
I remember the Ernest movies but not a tv show.
I believe CBS. You weren’t missing much…
Odie’s reply is “….”
Definitely a couple of grumps for sure 🙂 lol
I think the Garfield one edges it but then the
other one looks incredibly grumpy too 🙁 lol
Have a wickedly enjoyable Monday Bearman and keep
adding to your uniqueness my fine friend 🙂 🙂
Save your effort, Garfield. Grumpy Cat’s fifteen minutes are nearing their end, and Garfield, last I checked, is still alive and well on tons of merchandise.
Go vent your frustration by kicking Odie off the table.
Poor Odie
I think this all means that we need to spray Grumpy Cat orange and make a Garfield movie.
