What is the raccoon and cat paparazzi video?
It's an 11-second AI clip that's going round Instagram in November 2026: on a sunny promenade lined with palm trees, a raccoon in a black bucket hat and sunglasses and a grey tabby cat walk upright toward a phone camera. The cat kicks and dances, the raccoon pushes a paw at the lens like a star dodging photographers, the camera swings between them, the raccoon turns away, and the two strut straight back at the camera.
This template makes it with your pet. Your cat, dog or other pet takes the tabby's part, and the video follows a depth map of the original, so every kick, swat and turn lands where it does in the clip. The raccoon comes with it, in a plain black bucket hat and sunglasses. Have a second pet? Add it and it wears the hat and shades instead. Every version renders the whole 11 seconds, and it plays and downloads with the sound.
What the template recreates
11 seconds, one handheld "paparazzi" shot.
- 0–2 s
The strut
Side by side on the promenade: your pet kicks a leg out and dances, the raccoon stands cool in its hat and shades.
- 2–4 s
No photos
The raccoon walks right up and pushes a paw over the lens.
- 4–6.75 s
Your pet's close-up
The camera swings to your pet, who swats at it, then back to the raccoon for one more "no photos".
- 6.75–11 s
The walk-off
The raccoon turns its back, looks over its shoulder, and the two strut at the camera under the palm trees.
Where the clip came from
The clip was posted on Instagram on 12 November 2026 by @raccoonstolemyiphone, an account that posts AI videos of a raccoon in a bucket hat and sunglasses, often with a tabby cat sidekick, captioned "paparazzis everywhere". It rides a sound that blew up on Reels the same week, and the hat-and-shades raccoon with a cat has since been copied by other AI creators on TikTok.
People who see it usually ask the same thing: how do I make that with my cat? This template answers it from a single photo.

Premium renders 480p for 25 credits, 720p for 50 and 1080p for 85. Balanced is the cheaper model, from 15 credits. Both render the whole 11 seconds. Photos are reviewed first and failed renders are refunded automatically.

Play or download it with the sound, or download it silent. Caption it "paparazzis everywhere" and post it on Instagram or TikTok with #raccoon #cat.
Pet photos that work best
Face clearly visible
Eyes, nose and ears sharp and toward the camera: your pet gets its own close-up halfway through.
Good light
Daylight or a bright room keeps fur colour and markings true under the video's midday sun.
Show the whole pet if you can
Your pet walks and dances on its back legs the whole time, so a full-body photo gets its build and markings right.
Not a cat?
Dogs, rabbits and other pets work too: whatever is in the photo does the cat's moves.
Who wears the hat
The bucket hat and shades go on the raccoon, or on your photo 2 pet. Photo 1 stays as it is.
One animal per photo
Two pets in one photo, or a person holding the pet, make it unclear who should walk.
