Jon Arbuckle is such a wimpy pushover that Garfield does not usually have to resort to purrseverence for very long to persuade Jon to give in to whatever it is that said chubby feline is asking for.

Persevere

To persevere is to overcome problems by rethinking a hopeless situation and giving it time instead of rushing foolishly into the unknown. To persevere is to give time for the shock value to go away and to realize that things may not be hopeless. To carry on, to keep on swimming, to become patient, to look for guidance, from your heart and understand others feelings and needs. To persevere is not to force an outcome but to except difficulties and know that time may/can heal. To persevere is to change a way of doing things to a more realistic view. If it feels impossible than it will be. If it feels possible than it can be.

purseverance

Refers to an unwillingness to give up on your efforts to mooch off of someone (in other words, to get him to "open his purse" for you).
Sometimes the term "purseverance" can have a somewhat opposite meaning, as well --- it can also refer to the ongoing efforts that an overly-trusting person who actually HAS "opened his purse" to a neighborhood moocher feels compelled to maintain in an attempt to get said deadbeat to pay him back as he'd promised he would.
