A black cat named Binx gets popular these days. She protected the family dog, Oakley. Two coyotes (丛林狼) tried to hurt Oakley in their backyard.

Oakley was enjoying some outdoor time when the pair of coyotes came near. Quickly, Binx, the family’s black cat, jumped into action, chasing the coyotes away.

“Binx jumped down and scared them off, it was the craziest thing ever,” owner Lane Dyer said. Binx’s quick thinking and fearless action provided Oakley with enough time to escape the danger and look for protection inside the house. However, the small dog was still hurt.

The Dyers quickly sent her to the animal hospital. Luckily, the cute dog got successful treatment (治疗). The Dyers turned to security camera footage (监控摄像头) to piece together the events. “Binx loves Oakley. She bravely jumped at the two coyotes that were hurting this little dog. Seeing that makes us feel excited and warm,” Lane said.
