Looshkin: The Maddest Cat in the World - colouring activity sheet

Looshkin might look like a cute blue cat, but you’ve never met a cat like Looshkin before. If you look away for just a moment, your house will be full of foamy bubbles, there are pigs on your roof, and a portal to a hell-dimension has opened in your loft. And there are bees, everywhere! Life is never going to be boring while Looshkin is around, but one thing is for sure – it will be very, very funny!

Jamie Smart studied art at college for four years, but it was just an excuse to practise

Times
, the Dandy and the Beano. His well-loved Bunny vs Monkey and Looshkin stories
are regularly published in The Phoenix comic, and as bestselling graphic novels.
