This brave act gave Sophie a much-needed moment to escape.

She credits Tiger with saving her life that day.

The events that followed the attack added a layer of disbelief and frustration to the situation.

The owner of the pit bulls insisted that the dogs were friendly and claimed they had only been playing.

She explained that the dogs had managed to escape because her son had failed to close his bedroom door, which allowed the dogs to get out through a window.

While this explanation shed light on how the dogs got loose, it did not erase the fear and trauma Sophie experienced during the attack.

The memory of the incident remains vivid and unsettling, but it is now mixed with a sense of deep gratitude for her cat, Tiger.
