We all know that if you can’t run with the big dogs, it’s best to just stay on the porch. But these big, bad pooches might have trouble making it to that porch if there happens to be a small, fluffy kitten in their path.

Thank goodness a few of them were able to muster the courage to cross those mean cats’ path! They deserve a medal for bravery.
