Have you heard a cheetah purr?

[Graxhire038]

Probably just breathing..

[buddaman200522]

Purr? Maybe. Stomach? probably

[darkmegaman44]

sounds like a muscle car on standby

[StrangeCreed]

Sounds like someone trying to start a chainsaw.

[invrtdservor]

I read somwhere that big cats are different from domestic cats in the way they purr. Domestic cats can purr when inhaling or exhaling. Big cats can only purr by exhaling

[JaguarPawww]

Why do cats purr? My house cat purrs all the time and does little little dance on her back feet and shivers her body haha

[189crazygirl]

what a sweet cheetah! i love them so much! their like angels! O:)

[12gagebastis]

Fun fact cheetahs are the only big cat who can purr

[TheStardust12]

hahaha mouth breeather

[MW2noobpwnr]

this was filmed in my city of Houston, Texas. yay im proud to be a texan

[left4deadfan23543]

that animal is part of the cat family

[Cheetree1]

WOW cheetahs cant roar, but thats pretty dam close!

[DracoAzule]

Are they hostile?

[WolfXY2J]

@DracoAzule It depends if they are in the wild or in captivity such as homes or reserves. the Wild you never know but if they were born in captivity and have been around humans for a long time they arnt that hostile (But you never know they could come back and bite the hand that feeds em)

[DracoAzule]

@WolfXY2J Of course. Even my house cats are like that sometimes lol

[WolfXY2J]

@DracoAzule Cheetahs are probley my favorite cats of the cat family. It's sad some assholes hunt them for their skins (Or did)

[DracoAzule]

@WolfXY2J I never get people who wear real fur. It's like they wanna go out and show everyone how much they care for their social status more than the environment.

If they actually watched the process of killing the animals and turning them into clothes they may think twice.

[189crazygirl]

@WolfXY2J ur right

for revenge i kinda want to skin the paochers and sell it to the cheetahs lol

[WolfXY2J]

@189crazygirl Although i have a fear of being skinned alive. I want to skin them aswell. =D lol

[Gaara1555]

If i ever get a cat, its only gonna be a cheetah

[DreamingOfJeannie]

Such beautiful animals. They'd be great to have as companions.... imagine walking them down the street and all those little yapyap dogs suddenly start to squeak and run away.

[jimrobmicah]

At 0:43 he does the surprised cat look. The cat wasn't surprised all along! It was just acting like a Cheetah! :D

[MissOriana19]

[xXSiiKqpShotzXx]

He was charging his Lazah actually...

[JBhab30]

Cheetahs are balllinn

[ederondotcom]

I don't know about you, but if I hear a cheetah "purring" like that I'd crap all over my pants.

[IJEnfy]

@ederondotcom Thats amazing, I would crap in my pants but you're willing to take your pants off and crap all over them whilst a cheetah is watching you. Good effort!

[BANDMANSBAND]

is it legal to have a pet cheeta just woundering

[SDandBVB]

@BANDMANSBAND I wish :(

[XxXxDice]

@BANDMANSBAND YES

[randomyoko]

beautiful

[owned2hell]

:/ sounds like my sister when shes asleep...

[blackbriar246]

My cats purr surprisingly loud. I can sometimes hear them across the room. :O

[meyersher1]

Thanks for sharing. As mentioned by darkheat246 below, although they are a big cat, they don't roar. It's great for people who haven't seen a live cheetah to really hear the unusual noise that they make.

[WildBuck007]

Family gatherings after a Thanks giving dinner. In the living room. I hear this often =D

[IchiAndRuki]

Holy crap, did anyone else notice the badass chain? XD

[ZaKattack52]

[3DMaddy]

[audball911]

@3DMaddy My cat purrs with her mouth closed. Way to seem smart.

[Crysis124214]

Just taking my Cheetah out for a walk, no big.

[pistonpkm]

Out of all the big cats, cheetahs are the most aproachable and despite the risk towards small children, they could even be kept as a pet i guess?

[SpartanXan117]

Freakin awsome.

[Exerus]

I know that stare at 0:44

[yes333yes]

leash on a cheetah looks weird....but i'm jealous, i want a cheetah on a leash! hahaha

[djxthexmonferno]

@Gerechtable Hmm..yeah. Lived in that environment almost since the day he was born, these people were the first creatures he saw, they took care of him like parental figures, and he's lived in that environment his entire life. CLEARLY he has every reason to be disturbed. ~_~;

[FuzzySc2]

@Gerechtable YOUR CAPS LOCK DOES NOT PURR 'CAUSE HE'S HAPPY...HE PURRS CAUSE HE IS DISTURBED!

[Gerechtable]

[MCbigass13]

Calvin: I thought big cats don't purr?

Hobbes: I know, we don't.

Calvin: Then what do you call the noise when I rubbed your tummy?

Hobbes:...Growling friendly-like.

[clarinete09]

He should be in Africa instead of being a pet! Shame on people with wild animals as pets!

[TheKinseth]

@clarinete09 This is at the Houston Zoo, idiot. He's probably an animal ambassador, which is why he's on the leash.

[Waterzuka]

King approves of this

[IndigoCat17]

They also meow

[SirKendalMintcake]

What a handsome fellow!

[ManEatingTortoise]

It's like a gigantic house cat

[DarkSuperTails]

"What's this black thing in my face? =o Meh whatever I'm too content to care x3"

xD

[Feadrahchann]

Aren't wild cats supposed to be unable to purr? Or maybe that's just the big cats...

[link182ava44]

@Feadrahchann cheetahs are the only big cat that can purr.

[calbo555]

@link182ava44 bobcats can

[link182ava44]

@calbo555 interesting. I think cheetahs are the only one that can't roar.

[xXBlu3Haz3Xx]

There is such power in nature that is indescribable... when I see different species being able to comfort each other... I certainly see hope in this world.

[saistudioproduction]

Cougars have the most powerful purr than the cheetah.

[darkblueknightgirl]

"have i heard a cheetah purr?"

well, i have now

[1480miller]

helicopter

[gorefueledsandbeast]

is this why they so fast?

[hilzanne47]

He's still a young cheetah; he still has some baby fluff on the back of his neck! Gorgeous animal

[haghaghaghaag]

If i win the lottery i'll try to get one as domestic "cat", dangerous, but i can't help myself. Love big felines

[DesertSc0ut]

pure 120 cheetah power engion !

[Sonicgirl86]

He's beautiful. :3

[TheEdohopar]

You should Eat it.

[cody12345249]

Get the fucking Cheetah out of there and into the wild. They're wild animals, and they're endangered, let them be.

[wolfquestplayerasLim]

@cody12345249 if we let them be they'll die out

[spacep0d]

The sound is all panned left.



[ETCswawRET]

i cant even hear the thing

[cptmuska]

get the animal off that fucking leash.

[create1o]

@cptmuska listen dipshit.... SHUTUP!

[cptmuska]

@cptmuska u just show you stupidity and unconcern for animals

[mohiahmed1]

@cptmuska heres a comment that will make alot more sense, im sure if the cheetah didnt like being on a leash it wouldnt be purring

[AgnyAgne]

Lovely! But...poor...

[PREDLeader]

Thats a happy cat

[LemmonLizard]

Its a true fact that the big cats don't actually purr like most people think they do. they cant purr. what you're hearing is a growl, a very relaxed growl. It's true and dont think im lieing. I took a biology class in college and I now study and document big cats in the wild.

[Johfunu]

@LemmonLizard yeah it is true i heard thats why these big cats are more grumpy than happy because purring releases stress so i heard dont know if its true lol.

[JJJJJSM]

@LemmonLizard Big cats that are true big cats in the genus panthera like lions jaguars or leopards cannot purr, but can roar. Cats from other genus's, in this case the cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus) cannot truly roar but they do have the ability to purr.

[MissMerMer1980]

@JJJJJSM something else...Lions and tigers may not be able to purr, but they can chuff. And sometimes a chuff can sound like a purr. Sometimes people can confuse the two. Not saying that you are wrong, just something to add to what you said.

[voltaliobscur]

@JJJJJSM The proper plural is 'genera', in case you wanted to know.

[audball911]

@JJJJJSM You're correct in that other big cats cannot roar, but true big cats have been found to purr.

[lovinryry14]

@JJJJJSM actually big cats CAN purr but only when they exhale.

[darkheat246]

@lovinryry14 Cheetahs are the only big cat that doesn't roar or make any of the big cat sounds. It makes all the same sounds as a normal domestic house cat. Domestic house cats aren't originated from the big cats as contrary to popular belief. Two fun facts you learn today :D!

[MithranArkanere]

@LemmonLizard They do purr.

When cats purr they use the same part of the throat as when lions growl.

You know it's a purr because it is continuous and you can hear two distinct sounds: When it inhales, and when it exhales.

Both cats and cheetahs have 'vocal' sounds and 'purr' sounds. But bigger felines growl instead.

Cheetahs are amongst the ones that 'meow' and 'purr', although a cheetah purr sounds more quite like a growl.
