加菲猫的主人要在伦敦向女朋友求婚，顺便把它也带来了，谁知我们的胖加菲和一只皇族血统的猫掉了包，变成了一座城堡的主人，还有了自己的男仆和随从。正当它享受着这美好的一切的时候，出现了一个想把它赶走的人……

Garfield: A Tale of Two Kitties (2006)

剧照：加菲在城堡里享受着奢华安逸的生活Garfield, the world's favorite cat, has begun his very own British Invasion, wreaking1 havoc2 on the entire Kingdom. He's traveled across the pond (with canine3 sidekick Odie) to surprise his master, Jon Arbuckle, who is in London to propose to his girlfriend, veterinarian Liz Wilson.

Garfield came...he saw…he conquered: Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, Scotland Yard and his new favorite dish: minced4 pie (okay, it's not lasagna, but you can't have everything).

As befitting as adventure worthy5 of a feline6 phenomenon, Garfield has switched places with Prince, a royal cat who has just inherited a castle. Now the castle is Garfield's--and who's more deserving?

剧照：加菲？还是王子猫？

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the grand estate Garfield now calls home, he's receiving the royal treatment, including a butler and an international array of four-legged servants and followers7. It's a life fit for a king--even though Garfield is only a prince; in fact, he's the real "Prince and the Paw-purr."

Uneasy is the head, however, that wears the crown. Lord Dargis, who is next in line to inherit the estate, wants Prince/Garfield out of the picture. And Garfield finds his bigger, better, more purr-fect world turned upside down in this tale of two kitties.
