* The climax of ''Here Comes Garfield''; when it seems like Odie is about to be put down, a little girl visits the pound, looking for a pet. She picks Garfield, but once the cage door opens, Garfield leads the other captured animals in a jailbreak to free Odie. They get briefly stopped by the guard who nabbed Garfield earlier, but immediately start growling. The catcher gets an OhCrap expression just before the dogs and cats trample him and escape.

* In the prime-time TV special ''Garfield In the Rough'', an escaped panther threatens the life of Jon and Odie. Garfield, who ran up a tree in fear, has a sudden BigDamnHeroes moment, dives from the tree ''onto the panther's back, clawing away at it''.
