Etsy and Amazon sellers are already stocking merch for Jimothy, a Seattle raccoon whose spinal deformity gives him an unusually round torso, less than a week after resident Kiana Hall filmed him crossing her backyard and named him on Instagram, according to Fast Company. Listings include bootleg-style graphic tees posing the raccoon as a 90s superhero against lightning backgrounds, plus mugs, sticker packs, and handpainted figurines. Shirt slogans run to lines like In a world full of trash pandas, be a Jimothy. The Seattle Times has run multiple pieces on him, Slim Jim's brand account joined the comment sections, and Reddit's r/Seattle declared it Hot Jimothy Summer. Jimothy follows Moo Deng the hippo and Punch the monkey into the print-on-demand pipeline that now converts viral animals into apparel within days.
