He’s just a little guy!
Cheetas are such goofs. They are nonviolent with and mostly afraid of humans by default, can be domesticated and basically act like big kitty cats when they are raised as pets. But also you probably shouldn't do if you live in the city, looking at you Balkan mafiosi.
As someone wearing Adidas warm ups with a cat on my lap, I feel seen.
Only two
Chicken fucker.
That's actually the quote I was originally going to post. But didn't want to search chicken fucker meme and thought it might be a little too obscure
yes sir sorry sir an older boy told me to do it sir
Ackshually, cheetahs are not considered big cats. They are in the genus Acinonyx, while true big cats are Panthera and have a more rigid hyoid bone. Oddly enough the ability to purr is one of the main delineation lines that separate true big cats (Panthera), and cats that are just bigger.
My neighbors have a Maine Coon, that dude is already pretty big. And I think cheetahs are almost the same size. So I'll go ahead and assume you're a giant.
Okey 
This is funny, but it implies that the cheetah goes on to defeat the tiger in battle and..... nah.
Not defeat, only bite into hand when tiger is staring down opponent. And then opponent turn into transformer and discharge through tiger body.
