I agree. I think that cat should now literally be the mantra for the phrase, "Cool cat"
That was not a bullshit "hiss" or "threat" on the part of the cat ... he flat-out rammed into that dog with everything he had ... looked back to check the kid for a sec ... then ran the dog all the way off ... then went back to stand by the kid (except mama whisked junior off).
Never seen that loyal of a cat before
The one I had, that defended my brother when we were kids, just hissed at the dog ... she did not full-on barrel into it with everything she had and physically attack it like that.
That was badass (for a kitty!)
