In 2014, home security footage captured the moment a four-year-old boy, Jeremy Triantafilo, was viciously attacked by a neighbor's dog. Before anyone could react, the family's cat, Tara, sprinted into action, body-slamming the much larger dog and chasing it away. Her instantaneous, ferocious loyalty saved the child from serious injury, proving a protector's heart can beat in the smallest of chests.
