Pride of Place

Garfield sits with hooded eyes of distain  Claiming the computer shelf as his domain With a smirk resembling a grimace of pain From to much commotion he craves mundane  Gifted to girl who he thinks may be insane Too much excitement, like a run away train  Forty years together but he can't complain When she sleeps, he drinks her champagne  Feb 5, 2022

Oh Garfield, is this based on a real person? Or is it a cat?

And he looks like he's an boozer, shabby and worn out. Hugs
