Union Inflatables
Stand Out. Get Noticed. Make a Statement.
At Inflatable Images®, our union inflatables are purpose-built protest props designed to amplify your message and draw maximum attention. Whether it’s Scabby the Rat, a satirical “fat cat,” or a custom symbol of labor solidarity — our inflatables give unions a powerful visual voice.
Durable, weather-resistant, and built in the USA with heavy-duty materials and full-color printing, our union inflatables help you deliver your message loud and clear — from picket lines to rallies to community demonstrations.
Scabby the Rat
The Iconic Symbol of Labor Protests
Our Scabby the Rat is the most recognized union protest inflatable in the country. These large-scale figures, often 12 ft to 20 ft tall, serve as unmistakable symbols on picket lines, calling out non-union contractors and unfair labor practices.

High-visibility printed graphics and bold colors that stand out day or night
Reinforced seams and heavy-duty vinyl suitable for outdoor use
Customizable size and color — perfect for different protest contexts
Easy to inflate and transport — ideal for job sites, public demonstrations, or moving rallies
Use Cases: union strikes, secondary pickets, labor-rights demonstrations, public awareness events.

Corporate Fat Cat & Satirical Figures
Make a Visual Statement Against Corporate Greed
When a protest needs satire and bold messaging, our Corporate Fat Cat inflatable — and similarly themed designs — provide a powerful visual metaphor. Satirical inflatables have become a staple of modern union demos.
Why It Works:
The exaggerated “fat-cat” caricature delivers a sharp visual punch, instantly conveying your message.
Great for targeting non-union contractors, corporate executives, or unfair employers.
Fully customizable — change accessories, logos, slogans to match the campaign.
Durable and reusable for multiple picks, rallies, or publicity stunts.
Protests, awareness campaigns, media events — these inflatables work wherever you need a mixing of humor, critique, and bold visual impact.
Inflatable Protest Pigs & “Greedy Pig” Props
Go Beyond the Rat — Use Powerful Symbols of Greed
In addition to rats and cats, many unions use inflatable pigs — often dubbed “Greedy Pigs” — to symbolize corporate greed, unfair wages, and exploitation. Our protest pig inflatables offer another striking option to communicate economic injustice and rally public support.
Key advantages:
Eye-catching shapes and exaggerations that draw crowds and media attention
Fully customizable graphics, colors, and size to fit your message
Easy transport and inflation — ready for picket lines, protests, or public rallies
Pigs, rats, cats — whichever metaphor you choose, these union inflatables help unify your message and maximize visibility.

Thank you soo much for your enormous support Caylie.
Inflatable Images did an excellent job wrapping my artwork and ten other artists' work onto various traffic boxes throughout Lakewood, Ohio. The vibrant designs wrap wonderfully around those tricky boxes - nice job, Michael and the rest of the Inflatable crew!
