Adapted from a segment of the graphic novel "Garfield: His 9 Lives".
Despite the show's title (and some noticeable bullet holes in a brick wall in the background of one scene), there isn't a single bullet fired in the entire special.
In Spayed's office is a picture of a criminal wanted "Dead or Alive". It's the picture of Jon Arbuckle, Garfield's owner.
In the original story, all the characters were cats. Notice the human characters in this special all have cat-related named: Kitty, O'Tabby, Felix, etc.
