I've never really heard of them being protective of humans like that.

wonder what it is?

I love how the cat comes back after chasing off the dog, as if to check in on the kid. But I have to wonder WTF was up with the dog??? It seemed like a normal pet doggie, but it really went after that poor kid's leg!

And will be put down

being put down wasn't surprising.

(38,613 posts)9. Exactly. It's still sad. A cute doggie neglected and ill-trained :(

The boy had lacerations, but thankfully, the cat stepped in.

He needed stitches to close them up. I hope they check the dog for rabies.

And a throne. A very fancy one.

That cat deserves a medal.

(19,558 posts)16. In the ongoing debate of cats vs dogs, today the cats made vast headway.
That poor dog (it's only 8 months old and being put down now) never stood a chance. Kitty found its superpower and wasn't afraid to use it. The word is out on the street. Don't mess with his kid!
