Nickelodeon Welcomes Garfield to the Nick Family

Nickelodeon has officially welcomed Garfield the lasagne-loving cat to the Nickelodeon family!:


"The purrfect new addition to the Nick fam 😼 Welcome @Garfield!" Nick posted on Instagram.


Update (6/21) - Garfield.com now redirects to Nickelodeon's Garfield property page on nick.com, nick.com/garfield.

ViacomCBS, through one of its subsidiaries, announced in August last year that it had entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Paws, Inc., the entity holding global intellectual property rights to the Garfield and the U.S. Acres (a.k.a. Orson’s Farm) franchises--including corresponding rights related to content, consumer products, and location-based experiences for the Nickelodeon portfolio.

The acquisition of Garfield is part of Nickelodeon’s strategy to be the home for the biggest franchises kids and families love, and it expands Nickelodeon’s growing portfolio of influential properties that already includes SpongeBob SquarePants, PAW Patrol, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Blue’s Clues & You!, and The Adventures of Paddington series, as well as the the forthcoming first-ever SpongeBob spinoff, Kamp Koral: SpongeBob’s Under Years, Big Nate and all-new animated Star Trek.
