Home Away From Home is the season five premiere of Garfield and Friends.
Synopsis[]
Garfield runs away, and is nearly smothered by his new owner, who believes Garfield is her missing cat.
Plot[]
Jon gets a new organizer and finds that his entire daily schedule consists of feeding Garfield. Fed up with Garfield's gluttony, he tosses the cat out of the house, scolding him for not appreciating his efforts. Garfield roams the streets looking for a new place to live until an old lady mistakes him for her lost cat, Fluffy, and takes him in with the promise of dinner.
At her home, Garfield is disappointed to find only cat food on the menu, which he refuses to eat. The old lady spots a mouse and orders Garfield to get rid of it, even shoving him into the mouse hole. Inside, Garfield meets the mouse and discovers the real Fluffy, who has been hiding due to the healthy food. Garfield and Fluffy team up to get a real meal.
Garfield convinces the mouse to appear in front of the old lady, who then orders a pizza at Garfield's request. Garfield gets rid of the mouse, but it soon reappears, scaring the old lady again. Garfield and Fluffy enjoy the pizza until the old lady shows up, prompting Fluffy to hide. Garfield then demands Chinese food to deal with the mouse again.
This cycle continues with the old lady ordering different foods like tacos. Eventually, Fluffy gets real meals, and Garfield enjoys the food as well. Garfield decides to return home once the tacos arrive.
