Still slightly disappointed that the Puma shoe company didn’t chose the Cheetah. Look at that silhouette, the majesty, like speed incarnate scoping its next meal.
No, this is awe.
Kitty kitty :3

That is the appropriate response.
What is it about big cats that even though they can eat you, you want to pet them? Big sharks? Not so much.
They are kitties :3
To be fair if I thought a shark would let me pet it without it costing me a hand I totally would. Humans seem to really like to try to hang out with most other animals in general, it’s just a case of which ones will tolerate us. Big cats also look pretty similar to their little domesticated cousins so I expect there’s also a fair degree of cultural reinforcement of “cat-shaped = friend-shaped”
Cheetahs are definitely cute. They just look like housecats but bigger. They also look like they’re crying all the time and get emotional support dogs in zoos
I’ve pet a cheetah in real life in South Africa. It was insanely cute and even purred like a house cat. Then I pet a caracal kitten and bled a little. 10/10 would go back to SA!
This is totally aww as long as it is from afar. Closer it gets, more it turns to “oh no”.

Cool. Time for me to go cheetah shooting (with a camera, obviously).
Ah, aren’t cheetahs the ultimate sweethearts though? They can even retract their fangs so you don’t have to feel threatened! Not many gentle giants among cats, you know
Yes, they like to “chuff” at you to see if they can scare you though.
Fangs as in teeth? No cats can do that.
If you meant claws, then I think yes cheetahs are the only big cats that can somewhat retract their claws.I read something wrong. It said something about cheetahs only being able to “semi”-retract their claws and I must have misread it as only cheetahs could semi-retract while other big cats couldn’t.
It’s the other way around, they are the only ones who can’t retract their claws.
Cheetahs are not a big cat and they’re non retractable like a dogs (I’ve been around hundreds) all big cats have retractable claws
want to (consentually) rub the belly
Kitty consents. They’ll absolutely let you rub their belly from inside.
aww’ll hail the queen!
big cats look great from afar
More of an uuuh for me, but still upvote.
Gadse. Gadse streicheln.
It don’t work for me.
Cheetah Simba standing on the pride log.
Someone needs a furry tummy rub.
