People were left astonished after seeing a video of a cat saving a baby from falling down the stairs

Recently, a viral video emerged posted by ‎DLore Álvarez showing something you don’t see very often. Taken by the security cam, the video captured a little baby playing on the ground near her crib. Right next to her, on the sofa, an adorable cat was observing the child’s every move.

And then the video shows the reason why no one should ever leave their little kids in an unsafe environment alone – the baby started crawling forward towards the open door which led to the staircase.

Luckily, the smart animal acted quickly and interrupted the child by playing with her. Whether intentional or not, it’s clear that if the cat wouldn’t have done that, the toddler would have tumbled down the stairs and sustained serious injuries.
