Cameras Catch Family Cat Taking on Dog That Bit Boy | ABC News Blogs - Yahoo

People underestimate the loyalty of cats because of their apparent aloofness. Completely wrong - cats are extremely loyal and protective of their chosen human companions. This amazing video is more proof.



**Please be aware this video is hard to watch because the little boy is attached on the leg by a dog - there is no blood, but it is momentarily very shocking. **

Please visit http://www.blackcatrescue.com 

Here's a little more about the site...

New baby needs home

After an epic rescue from seriously harrowing heights, this sweet baby girl needs a new loving home. Little Sabbath literally fell into my life from a twenty foot high oak tree that she'd been up in for untold hours.
Dehydrated and starved she tried to climb down only to take a great leap of faith- straight at my welcoming face!
Luckily, and to everyone's amazement- mostly mine- I caught this tiny flying shadow of midnight. She immediately began making biscuits in my arms and purred gratefully.
She is maybe two months old, angelic in nature and loves to cuddle. She's going to be an incredibly faithful and loving companion.
But why give up such a heaven-sent baby? She would be number four for us. And, although, that doesn't seem like a lot to some, our life with children and three felines is quite hectic and could take away from all that little Sabbath has to offer.
