Synopsis

Garfield finds that Squeak and his entire family of mice have moved into the house, so he tries to get them out before he can get in trouble.

Plot

Garfield was sleeping. When his alarm clock woke him up, he threw his clock out of the window. Squeak the mouse ran by Garfield's door. Then another Squeak ran up the stairs. Then another Squeak ran past Garfield. Why did Garfield see Squeak three times? Garfield went into the kitchen. But he found out the kitchen was full of mice!

Later, the mice became Garfield's servants. When Jon was home, the mice ran away. Odie ran in and licked Garfield. Jon tells Garfield to watch the house when Jon's gone and Garfield will watch out for intruders and mice (especialy mice). Odie sniffed at Garfield. Jon decided to read a book. Then, Jon went in the kitchen for something to eat. Garfield was so much annoyed by Odie, he kicked Odie out of the house. Jon saw Garfield holding Squeak. But Garfield said that it was a happy kitty toy thingamabob. Jon threw Squeak in the air. Garfield catched him. Two mice were hiding in Jon's cupboard. Jon thought that Garfield ate all of the crackers. The mice ran out of the cupboard. Jon yelled, "I have mice in my cupboard!" Jon suddenly saw more mice in his silverware drawer. And he saw a mouse in his sink. Jon lets out an explosive yell, "GARFIELD!!!" Garfield followed Jon to the computer. They watched something on the computer called Ratator Pest.

Jon tells Garfield to get rid of all of the mice. If Jon sees one single mouse when he gets back, Jon is going to call Ratator Pest. And he's deducting the cost of them for his cat food budget. That means Garfield won't see lasagna in this house for years. Garfield is worried about Squeak and the other mice. Squeak follows Garfield to the computer. Squeak was horrified after watching Ratator Pest. When Jon got back, the mice were not gone. When Jon was about to call Ratator Pest, he saw Garfield in a Ratator Pest disguise. The mice ran into the bag. Garfield finally got rid of the mice.

Garfield's reward was going to Lugi's Lasagna. Garfield and the mice ran to Luigi's Lasagna. Lugi said not only the mice were his problem, Garfield was as well.
