It remains the first and only time a feline has ever won the title. A year earlier in Bakersfield, four-year-old Jeremy Triantafilo was riding a bicycle in his driveway when a neighbor's dog escaped and went after him. The animal grabbed the boy by the leg and started pulling him down the pavement.

Before anyone else could react, Tara sprinted across the yard and body-slammed the much larger canine. She chased the intruder down the street to make sure it was gone, then immediately ran straight back to check on the four-year-old.

Sunny says hold their beer. A cat in Phoenix named Sunny chased away a Coyote that was heading toward the home. Unnamed cat says hold my Beer. In a surprising and brave encounter, a cat has been captured on video chasing a bear away from its home
