Inscription. Cartoonist Jim Davis, creator of lasagna-loving Garfield the Cat, is a native of Grant County. In honor of the cool cat, and to honor local son Jim Davis, communities throughout Grant County erected statues of Garfield. Each statue features a unique design that depicts the heritage and character of the town in which it stands. The Garfield Garden Paws for Thought statue is a reminder that altruism, like Garfield himself, will always be in style.
