Pookie

Garfield's teddy bear.

A regular throughout the strip, this is the only entity in the universe besides himself and food that Garfield shows any kind of positive emotion toward. Well, ok, maybe he does have feelings for Arlene, but still not to the same extent. Pookie he cares about.

The Tagalog word for Vagina. Tagalog is the native language of the Philippines. My wife tells me I spelled it wrong. She says it is spelled puke, which most of us American's think of as something quite different.

Some Garfield fanatic might have logged on hoping to find some reference to loveable little teddy bear who is occaisionally dragged about by the obese cat. Sorry, wrong pookie.
