Cutest pic ever. I hear cheetahs make great pets, I saw video of some man that slept with a couple, cuddling at night.

I don't know how endangered they are, I am guessing a lot, but if they come from the already captive population it's not bad, not as long as you attempt to find them a mate to breed to keep their population alive.

A big problem for captive cheetahs is that their meeting rituals (as I understand it) involve running across plains for miles. And that they are naturally very nervous (hence the puppy). I've read that breeding them in captivity is extremely difficult.

That is one adorable cheeto, I absolutely love that that captive Cheetahs gets puppy homies because they're so nervous, like yeah man, it's all good, Gus here is your assigned bestie at birth, he'll just hang out with you for the next forever, no problem 😎

Emotional support puppy for a cheetah is peak friendship. Cullen looks so proud of the job.

That's the third puppy this month.
They rotate the puppies.
No, not along the length. I mean several puppies.
No, not like in Costco. I mean the puppies are rotated one at a time.
No! Not like at your dad's BBQ.
Yes! Yes, they all taste the sam... No, I mean! It's fine, the cheetah doesn't eat the puppies!

No, there are not chocolate ones that the cheetah likes better.
