The video, captured on CCTV, was shared on the Facebook page Freedom Dog Spa. “Our animals are amazing! This is our client Oakley! She was let out to potty and was attacked by coyotes! Binx the very very brave cat came to the rescue! Watch as Binx scares them off to save her dog sister! Oakley is home and recovering. Amazing!” reads the caption posted along with the video.

“It was inspiring to see just our little outdoor cat just jump at two coyotes that were attacking this little dog who she loves and run them off,” the dog’s owner Lane Dyer told the outlet.
