Timon:"He's a wolf, a wolf in bird's clothing."” - ―Timon and Pumbaa about Little Jimmy
Little Jimmy might seem cute and adorable, but he's dangerous. He has two voices: his sweet, innocent voice to pass himself off as a kid and his criminal mastermind voice that proves he is an adult. He likes to take advantage of people and he would hurt someone if he doesn't get what he wants. Each time he uses his criminal voice, his forehead gets wrinkled to prove his true maturity.

Timon & Pumbaa[]
"Nest Best Thing"[]
When Timon climbs up a tree to catch a bug that hid under a nest, the branch breaks, causing Timon and the nest to fall. Little Jimmy lands on Pumbaa's nose. When he introduces himself to the duo, he tells Pumbaa that he lost his home. Pumbaa is willing to help him build a new house, while Timon is reluctant as it is too much work. When Pumbaa leaves Little Jimmy alone with Timon to get some materials for the house, the bluebird, after Timon tells him that they have no time to help him, threatens the meerkat by telling him that he will murder him if he doesn't build a house as well as telling Pumbaa about his true nature.

When Pumbaa returns with the tools, Timon is about to tell him what just happened but Little Jimmy interrupts. While Pumbaa reads the manual, Timon swiftly builds a birdhouse. While Pumbaa is happy about their teamwork being successful, Little Jimmy is unsatisfied with the birdhouse and asks for a few little extras.
When Timon and Pumbaa finish rebuilding the birdhouse, Little Jimmy asks for a security system, an electric fence, and a mote. After Timon and Pumbaa build what Little Jimmy asked for, Timon tries to convince Pumbaa that Little Jimmy is dangerous, but the warthog doesn't believe him as he thinks the bluebird is too cute. But then, a group of pigeon police show up and try to arrest Little Jimmy. This makes Pumbaa realize that Timon was right.

When Pumbaa gets on the roof, he uses his gas weapon to distract Little Jimmy so that the police can capture him. However, the police are also distracted by the smell, leaving it up to Pumbaa to catch the bluebird. Little Jimmy asks Pumbaa to let him go by using his fake cute nature. Pumbaa is about to at first until Timon reminds him of what just happened, making the warthog change his mind by refusing causing little Jimmy Jimmy to say that he will put a contract out on them. Therefore, Timon and Pumbaa turn Little Jimmy in.
