A security camera captured the moment an adopted household Cat saved a one-year-old baby from falling down a steep flight of stairs.

Gatubela, the Siamese Cat isn’t just looking out for her own nine lives.

In a video captured by an office security camera in Bogota, Colombia on October 31, one-year-old baby Samuel León can be seen crawling around outside of his crib, when suddenly the little baby began heading for the doorway which immediately led to a steep flight of stairs.

Springing into action, Gatubela pounced on the boy, and forcefully pushed him back from the 12-step stairwell

Wow!!! I guess cats don't hate us after all! Ole

In all seriousness though, the relationship between pets and their humans never ceases to amaze me.

And our cat woke us up to a fire starting in our house...in the days before smoke alarms were widespread.

Awhile back there was a viral video of a cat protecting a toddler from attack by a pit bull...filmed by security cameras.

I know you were kidding about cats hating us, SK, but there are still people who misunderstand them.

It's kind of hard to resist the chance to take advantage of the "cats are jerks" stereotype, but I know they're good pets. Yes
