🦝 Jimothy
Raccoon (short-spine) · Ballard, Seattle (wild and free)
Lives in City Block
A raccoon with a rare short-spine condition - looks like a raccoon with the middle deleted, waddles like a loaf on legs. Seattle lost its mind in July 2026: murals, tattoos, a city proclamation of 'Jimothy Summer', an honorary degree. Vets confirm he's thriving. Built different.
What they do
The neckless waddle - a compressed loaf on legs conquering a flight of stairs.
Seattle's scrappy short-king street legend. Built different and knows it.
