On the day of the midterm elections, a fierce debate erupted in the comment section of the official, verified Garfield Instagram account, managed by the official licensing firm Paws, Inc.

The post currently has 9,612 comments and counting.

“Wtf Garfield vote or die,” one user commented, receiving 42 likes.
