First appearance: June
19, 1978
Jon Arbuckle is supposed to have been born on December 23rd, 1950 to Mr. and Mrs. Arbuckle. He was born and raised on a farm with one brother, Doc Boy. He went to college for a few years, to become an unsuccessful cartoonist. In 1978 he wanted a pet and was debating over getting an iguana or a cat. Finally, he chose Garfield, the cat.
Jon Arbuckle has a very hard time getting a date. This is probably because of his unusual passtimes. He likes to:
collect lint and earwax
enjoys breathing
tape his lips together
play chess by mail
tape ice cubes to his body
where bunny pyjamas and slippers
polka
let the lawn mower chase him
thinks fingers are amazing
watch the show "Bowling for Geeks"
visit the Nerd Hall of Fame
collect stamps
sort his socks
As you can see, Jon Arbuckle is a very odd person.
