Compact build. Big personality.
Jimothy, the short-spined
raccoon from Ballard
Jimothy is a raccoon from Seattle's Ballard neighborhood with a short spine and a compact, no-neck build. Neighbors' videos of him went viral in July 2026, and within weeks he was national news. People love him because he's a little odd, entirely himself and clearly doing just fine. Our Jimothy raccoon shirts and Jimothy raccoon merch are fan-made in that spirit.
