Storyline
Jon becomes concerned about Garfield's behavior after he messes up the house. Somewhere in between being dragged out of the house and being driven to the vet, Garfield falls out of the car and is lost in the city. He tries to make the most of it until he runs into a group of unfriendly alley cats that call themselves The Claws. Garfield runs away and ends up in an abandoned restaurant... and then is reunited with his long lost mother. The building they are in used to be "Mama Leone's", Garfield's birthplace and also where he discovered a love for lasagna. Garfield's mother takes him to see the rest of the family including his tough grandpa and half brother Raoul. Garfield is appalled to learn that everyone in the family are mousers. The Claws have tracked Garfield down and have surrounded the building. The family decides to fight instead of giving up Garfield to The Claws. Garfield hides cowardly while the family fights and finally chases The Claws away. Garfield's grandfather demands that Garfield leave. Garfield says goodbye to his mother and leaves. Out in the soaking rain Garfield collapses until Jon and Odie find him and bring him home. Garfield thinks the whole day's experience may have been a dream but he knows that his mother is still looking out for him.Songs in Garfield on the Town
