Meet Smudge the hero cat!

When Sarah Fenton was in the kitchen watching her two boys play outside in Doncaster, she noticed another group of boys approach them.
"I was keeping an eye on the boys who were playing football in the front garden," Sarah said. Five-year-old Ethan and two-year-old Ashton were just minding their own business.
“I saw three boys who were much taller and older than Ethan walk over to our front gate. I heard them shout Ethan's name twice but he ignored them and just put his head back down and kept playing with Ashton.”
“But then they shouted him again and then one of the boys got in Ethan's face and said, 'Oi! Why are you ignoring me?” and pushed him over.
Sarah immediately rushed outside and that's when she saw Smudge take action into her own paws.
“I rushed outside and saw Smudge fly out from under our car and jump on the boys chest.”
The bully was not expecting that!

“I think it was shock more than anything but the boy stumbled backwards, burst into tears and then ran off.”
Sarah, who is a part time hairdresser, bought Smudge after being left heartbroken when the cat they had for just 18 months died.
In a strange twist that proves Smudge is a perfect match for the Fenton family, the cat they originally picked out was sold before they were able to pick it up.
So they bought 10-week-old ginger and white moggy Smudge and, for Sarah, it was 'love at first sight'.
“He was so small and cute and I knew we just had to have him.”
The family, who are from Doncaster, have had Smudge for three years but had never before seen his heroic alter ego.

“He has never done anything like that before but it was absolutely brilliant seeing him look out for Ethan like that.”
He has slept outside his bedroom keeping guard ever since it happened.
“I actually feel so much safer knowing Smudge is around after seeing him defend him like that. He is a big part of the family and he is more of a brother to the boys than a cat.”
