Tara the “heroic” cat who rescued a young boy from a dog attack will “throw out” the first pitch at a home game for the local minor league baseball team, the Bakersfield Blaze.
The Class-A team in the California league have confirmed Tara will be a part of their game on May 20 after saving six-year-old Jeremy Triantafilo.
Jeremy was playing in the drive of his California home on Tuesday when the dog attacked him, only for Tara to fly in, hurl herself at the dog and chase it away moments later.
The moment was caught on CCTV and spread like wildfire around the internet yesterday, attracting over eight million views on YouTube.
News of the incident quickly spread and Jeremy, who required four stitches after the attack, was interviewed by ABC News, granting Tara instant fame.
