Strip by: ObjectFan51

{Garfield is eating food from Jon's plate.}
SFX: Gobble gobble snarf gulp
{Garfield has saved the two carrots and is now putting them in his ears.}
SFX: Squik squik
{Jon enters the room.}
Jon: GARFIELD!!!
Garfield: The earplugs aren't working because of budget cuts.

The author writes:

I was looking at the original strip when I thought to myself: What if Garfield's carrot earplugs didn't work? What would Jon be saying?

Later on, I thought of the "budget cuts" running gag from [YouTube animation series] Battle for Dream Island and added that to the strip.

Oh, and Garfield's thought bubble was entirely drawn by me. It's not from any original strip.

I hope someone makes an SRoMG running gag out of this "budget cuts" thing.
