America’s favorite fat cat is back, and this time, he’s giving England the royal treatment!  It’s a British invasion of a different kind when Garfield, along with pals Jon and Odie, travels to London and meets his mirror-image in Prince, an aristocratic kitty who has inherited a fabulous castle.  The two trade places, and soon Garfield is living large as only he can!  There’s just one problem— the dastardly Lord Dargis wants him out of the picture.  A Tail of Two Kitties is twice the laughs and double the fun for the whole family… It’s good to be king!
