Okay, for all you animal "experts" out there freaking out about me patting Nova while he eats, feeding him was a deliberate move by his keeper to calm him during my session as it was a windy day, and the wind can make the cats skittish. Nova was purring the whole time I patted him, as a matter of fact, so you'll excuse me for trusting Nova's lifelong keeper over a bunch of YouTube geniuses :)

@ansemkurt

indeed, the biggest problem is that unlike a small cat, when they get grouchy, they will leave deep wounds instead of just small scratches like a regular house cat would.

kings are very rare so i hear

Cheetah's are know to be very docile for big cats. They're not very aggressive. They've been pets to Pharaoh and queens for centuries

the one that was eating is not pure cheetah...

cheetah is the best land animal

What is this with people having the need to capture animals and showing them off to other humans for watching and petting them. Its like walking into a restaurant and then petting someone while theyre eating a cheeseburger. Give the animals some respect people and dont think of them as toys.

@HollywoodKendrick I dont think cheetahs cook meat in the wild, therefore feeding them raw meat is exactly what they will eat in the wild.

@sorscha Can I have him?
