The enormous number of products that feature Garfield's image earn between US$750 million and US$1 billion a year. This includes collections of the comic strips in over a hundred books. Part of Garfield's popularity is the fact that Jim Davis, his creator and cartoonist, keeps the humor simple. Garfield loves sleeping and eating lasagna and pizza. He hates diets and Nermal, so he does everything he can to avoid both. He is mean to Odie, but gets bullied by Arlene. Garfield's owner, Jon, is always a lovable loser. Most importantly, anyone can enjoy the comic strip because it stays away from politics and does not take a stand on sensitive topics or issues. The jokes are always light, and no one ever gets hurt in the end. It is no surprise that Garfield is one of the most successful cartoon characters of all time.
以加菲貓的圖像為主要特色的大量商品一年賺進七億五千萬到十億美元。這包含成集的一百多本連環漫畫書籍。加菲貓如此受歡迎的部分原因，事實上是因為牠的創作者及漫畫家吉姆•戴維斯讓幽默保持簡單。加菲貓愛睡覺，而且很愛吃千層麵和披薩。牠討厭飲食限制以及尼莫，所以牠極盡所能地來避開這兩者。牠對歐弟很壞，但是卻會被阿玲欺負。加菲貓的主人老姜總是個討人喜歡的輸家。最重要的是，任何人都可以欣賞這部連環漫畫，因為它避開政治而且對敏感的主題或議題不預設立場。這部連環漫畫裡的笑話總是輕描淡寫，所以最後都不曾有人受過傷害。一點都不令人意外，加菲貓是有史以來最成功的漫畫角色之一。
