Josh

Josh is a grey chipmunk who sports a blue cap with SPACE on it and a light blue shirt with Saturn on it. He has glasses due to shortsightedness.

Character Bio
Josh lives next door to his best friend and lab partner Sniffles. He has a high IQ (not as high as Sniffles) and does well at his school. His favourite subjects are Science, History and Art.

He likes to draw pictures of some things he likes (Biplanes, planets and even himself). He dislikes wasps, lightning and needles. His most torturous and traumatic death was when he was mangled by a shark when he went diving.

One of his greatest achievements was when he made a patio sized picture of an ambulance before his hospital appointment. That was due to him being bored. He has been making big pictures since then. Most embarrasingly, he made a picture of himself showering at a spa.

Sometimes, making big pictures would then lead his friends to an unfortunate fate. Like his lover Petunia, Josh has OCD but that is for art, not cleaning. He is very protective of his artwork. Every time he sees one of his paintings or big pictures ruined, he either hyperventilates or goes crazy and starts his painting all over again or mends the big picture. Sometimes it goes out of hand and Josh goes on a mad spree. He accidentally killed Flippy once in one of his sprees by stabbing him with his own knife. As revealed in A Clothes Call, he can flip out if angered enough. His deaths usually involve electrocution, boiling or being shredded or mauled.

He has his own spin-off series known as Josh's Big Picture Showcase.

Relationship between Josh and Petunia
Josh likes Petunia because she is pretty and spotless. Petunia likes Josh because she likes his artistic skill. Despite being a different species (Josh is a chipmunk and Petunia is a skunk), they get along with each other very well. They both have obsessive compulsive disorder, but Petunia has OCD for cleaning and hygiene and Josh's OCD is art related. This relationship can cause Josh to sometimes argue with Handy, Fungus, Crazy and Disco Bear. The shipping name for this couple can be refered with "Petosh" or "Joshunia". More about this love relationship is on Josh/Petunia page.

Trivia

 * He is, so far, the one of three character of British nationality the others being Decker and Patriot. This could explain why he sometimes mumbles with a British accent.
 * Unlike most other HTFs, Josh can sometimes speak clear English like when he begins his big picture, he says "This could be a Big Picture" and when someone ruins his artwork, he says "MY ART!"
 * He has a love for space, as depicted by his cap and shirt.
 * Some people call him a nerd, but he is actually a geek.
 * His signature big pictures mostly has catchy music in the background and no sound. Some of the music is duplicated like when Josh made a swan swimming with a cygnet at an aviary, the music is used again when he made a desktop fan at a hardware and home superstore (inspiration caused by seeing Hippy and Giggles keeping cool by fans)
 * He sometimes creates portraits of his friends. List of friend portraits: Giggles at her birthday party, Cuddles at a toy store, Russell at a maritime museum, Handy at a aquarium, Petunia at a pier, Sniffles at a school, Flippy at an army base, Splendid at a comic convention, Flaky at a courtyard where a spider is and even Lifty and Shifty out of things they stole recently.
 * He has obsessive compulsive disorder like his lover Petunia, but that is an art obsession, not hygiene even though Josh keeps himself clean.
 * He usually uses his computer while he is at home.
 * Usually when he sees someone dying, he gasps and then whistles nonchalantly
 * When he completes one of his big pictures, he puts two thumbs up.
 * H e can flip our if irritated enough, a s revealed in A Clothes Call, where he kills Lifty and Shifty (though he cannot be listed as a Flippy-sue, as it is a rare event)
 * He is a special HTF because he is one of the few HTFs that can speak clear English.
 * When sees Petunia die, he either cries or shakes his fist.
 * His despair when he sees Petunia's corpse is similar to Pop's when he sees Cub die.
 * He has a medium to deep voice. A bit like Splendid.
 * In the Season 26 finale Siblings in Blood, it is revealed he is the brother of Giggles.
 * In a Season 27 episode "Battle of the Arts", he would compete against Drama (acting) and Crazy (music) with his artistic skills.
 * He sometimes call his friends by their nicknames:


 * 1) ​Giggles: Gigs
 * 2) Flippy: Flipster
 * 3) Decker: Decky
 * 4) Fizzles: Fizzes
 * 5) Petunia: Pets
 * 6) Handy: Hand man
 * Ale: Ally
 * 1) Savaughn: Savy
 * 2) Nutty: Nutster
 * 3) Stacy: Stace
 * Similar to Crazy, Josh used to have Petunia as his girlfriend before finding another girl.
 * He is the first character to reach his 100th death.
 * Between Together Again and Children of Jotunia, a blog poll was made for viewers to decide whether he or Petunia should keep Genesis and Beauty. With a vote ratio of 11 to 2, Josh won by a landslide.
