I spent 10 nights sleeping inside a Cheetah enclosure with two adults; setting up camp inside a concrete box in their territory. This was an experiment to see how Cheetah behavior differs from daylight activities and it turned out as one of the most incredible experiences of my life. I hope to make people rethink all their preconceptions about Cheetahs with my overall efforts. Things they won't read in a book, or see visiting a zoo, or watching on Nature Programs like Nat Geo Wild. It will take years.
These two females were bred and hand raised at this Cheetah Breeding facility called Cheetah Experience in South Africa. I spent four days getting to know them first and letting them get to know me before spending any nights inside their concrete Cheetah box. They were surprisingly nice; even more so at night than during the day. Cheetahs are diurnal rather than nocturnal which means they hunt during the day rather than night. As a result, their moods were relaxed. Their thoughts were not about food or hunger, but relaxation and rest.
I this episode, I film the Cheetahs initial entry into the concrete box. You see how they pick their spots and it's normally in the same place with Faith flopping down lengthwise to me and Eden following as she lays next to my head so she can groom me. Their groom sessions last up to 20 minutes to include "Love" biting. They finally settle down and become relaxed rest of night... occasionally purring when they woke up at the lightest disturbance. This was the basic routine every night.
With Faith's handicap (sterile meningitis as a cub), her love biting is dangerous. She cannot control her bite strength and will cause scaring bites if she get's a hold of you. She grabbed my watch one year and broke the band off of it with my wrist still attached! I have seen scars from her love bites on peoples arms. So I did not let her grab me ever. She tried many times but it was only the 1st 20 minutes she and Eden liked love biting and after that, they both calmed down.
Once they stopped the biting and grooming, they really relaxed and became very cuddly with Eden continuing to love bite but did not bite hard... normally. She did bite me hard a couple of times and I had to cough in her face very loudly to get her to release. It is what they teach you if any of the Cheetahs grab you with a love bite and won't let go. Of course that does not work if they bite to hurt you :)
I show how they also love bite themselves and then how Eden fell in love with me. She insisted on laying falling asleep next to my face but it was after 15 minutes of grooming that was extremely painful. I had to keep blocking her affections until she settled down. She purred most of every night and getting sleep was minimal. But after the totally settle down and want to sleep, they were the most cuddly cats in the world. I could use them as hand warmers and wrap my arms around them for warmth.
On my last episode, I'll discuss more about specific behavior I will highlight like dreaming, grooming, jealousy, and my conclusions as to why they behaved the way they did.

"Aw, kisses" "ow, fuck" the vicious cycle of friendly cats.
lol
I love how eden knows that faith didnt mean to hurt her so she yipes and snarls in pain then grooms her letting her know she isnt mad at her just she hurt her
They are aware of much more than we think... other higher inteligent mammals.
yeah that is amazing.
Puppies do this too when they are playing. I don't remember kittens though. I think they play to the death. lol
Thank you for these beautiful videos. I'm going to use the purr video to fall asleep by.
I think that's what he should have done as well, he should have verbalized an audible :aaah when she stepped on him followed by petting, otherwise she wont realise her weight is hurting him
@@Superciclyst i think its mentioned that Faith has a neralogical issue that makes it hard to immpossible for her to control her bite pressure. Its also seen in how she hold her tail (completly up and curled in like a husky which is not normal) and how she walks. So even though she trys to be gental her muscles dont coperate
i would fall asleep in an instant with that purring lol
Jackie Murria ASMR
Jackie Murria I dont think so
watch out for the lock bite!
and the cheetah can't sleep because you snoring so loud
be carefull. that love bite will wake you up. lol
I need a cheetah purring ASMR...
I have a video coming of just cheetah purrs because people like you have inquired about it. Bought a nice stereo mic and have it recorded. Have to compile and post. Soon!!!!
omg! can't wait for that! Here take my humble subscription good sir!!!
Longwei 龙威 Will be a few weeks. I have a different one I will post next weekend.
V Dе You're crazy...
get a fox
The similarities these big cats show to my house cats is amazing.
they come from the same roots if you will.
Thats the one thing I really notice from these videos. When you refer to them as "big cats", that term is pretty literal. Their psychology is very similar.
Because all of em are felines? lol. You guys say so much nonsense hahaha.
@@Jvk1166z Big cats are still cats after all and share a lot of common traits with them, including the habits and traits of housecats, even if a lot of them could very easily kill you on a whim or even just through playing lol. Cheatahs are definetly the most docile of the bunch, would be pretty risky to do this with something like a leopard, lion or tiger I imagine.
They are cats but big and in the wild
looks like you will have the cleanest head in the world..
TE E -the real mr clean
Cant have dirty skin if you dont have skin
Timothy Bennett or the shiniest...
Timothy Bennett yeah agree and he would never need to go to a Dr for any microdermobrasion sessions lolol
More like a really sore head/ skin after a while, since cat tongues are basically wet and warm sandpaper and thats just me talking about housecats. I can imagine these much bigger cheatahs tongues definetly tenderize and irritate the bare skin of human after a fair bit of licking haha.
luckily these two dont seem to have the habit of affectionately smooshing theyr butts in ones face, as some house cats :D
That's what they do when they secretly hate you.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Hahahah imagine that he wakes up to do a morning recap and he has pudding stains on his face lol
He just didn't show those clips, that doesn't mean they didn't do it.
lol my dog does that all of the time, i didnt know it was a cat thing XD
gosh, he has to be so tuned in in an emotionally intuitive way when interacting with powerful cats. very cute stuff
Thanks! No fear and a nice understanding of these individual cats personalities, that and pretending to be one of them is the key. I even purr for them. But they were already trusting of people. It made it easier to find out what they liked doing.
@@CheetahWhisperer I've found a whole new world just by observing my two cats, there's a lot more than purring with cats, as those that think they are "aloof" means they are missing out of the body language and signs they really give off. Domestic cats do a tail bob - a quick vertical tail up down, starting with the tail up, as a sign of greeting or excited to see you. etc. it's really amazing how much communication there is.
This is so funny. I've had a cat who would only sleep on my face. Literally across my face. I had to constantly adjust so I can breathe. Eden is such a lover. Magnificent animals.
It is why the old wives tale about "Cats taking babies breath" was adopted. Cats laid on the warm babies head and sufficated them. I've had a cheetah lay over my head while purring and it vibrated my head but I could see it stealing my breathe of I didn't adjsut my head.
one of my cats would “make biscuits” on my throat i wake up choking multiple times
@@sophiep6718 “finally it is time, OH GOD THEY WOKE UP”
you and eden both coordinating to keep faith from biting is really cute
Yep... Faith must be encouraged not to bite.
"Took the best parts of the bed" LOL Seems with any cat they let you use "their" stuff. I had a cat that wanted a pillow. If you used the pillow it was not a problem for her. She just laid down on your face.
😂
well you should pull a uno reverse and lay on her when shes laying on your pillow
These cheetahs seem more friendly than most pet cats I've met, even my old pet cat wasn't very friendly.
@@OneBoredCatbug
Well that’s bcz cheetahs are very anxious when alone.. they need emotional support
awww they look so soft. I could fall asleep hearing them purr :3
:)
Dolph C. Volker just listening to your purring ASMR on my laptop. Good night :D And greetings from Germany! :)
I'll have more purr videos early next year.
I doubt you would be able to fall asleep in there with them. Just the fact that you want to be aware of what they are doing will keep you awake.
@@kingwacky184 no i doubt they will try to eat you and stuff but the worst thing you can worry about is the purring noises its very loud i cant sleep in it!
“Cats have love bites and so do cheetahs”
*and my chihuahua*
And a bird
@jeff uz and a turtle
And a bag
And a burrito
Does a taco bite?
It’s interesting that you didn’t raise these cats and had to be introduced to them, obviously cheetahs are very different from tigers and lions. (Imagine a stranger trying to do this with two tigers). Interesting.
The temperament of lesser cats is what is amazing to me. I think the big separation in temperament between the bigger and lesser cats is their hierarchy in the animal predatory kingdom. Lesser cats are not the dominant species... the BIG cats are. Maybe being the under'cat' results in a mindset that is less aggressive and thus non combative and so flee rather than fight to live to breed again. Makes then more accepting of people when hand raised.
Most all these tame lesser cats are friendly when raised properly and loved and respected. I met a male adult caracal today for the 1st time and it loved me.... suckling on my arm like I was it's mother. Hand raised.
What do you mean when you refer to "hand raised"? Is that a trigger for agression in certain cats? Love your videos.
Bassem Boustany as said, they are far less aggressive than other big cats. I mean that, and perhaps I have the background of this story wrong, that if I entered the territory of two captive adult lions, it would be relatively sure I’d be attacked. For an adult lion, yea pretty sure it would be an impossibility to be anywhere near unless a very controlled setting I suppose. (Since I would be a total stranger to the lion). Did I miss this story, that you have a history with these cats?
Bassem Boustany "hand raised" means raised by humans
Cheetahs are human friendly. They always were. Urban legends that big cats are all of em dangerous is completely false. The fact is that, even Lions, Tigers other "dangerous" big cats are not dangerous if you treat em with respect and love. They are not stupid. Unless they are hunting and they see you as a prey because you did something wrong (something that rarely happens), you should not be afraid of these big cats. Urban legends keep messing with the real facts lol.
wow they are so loyal...omy gosh..were u able to get some sleep?
+lea rodriguez Hhaha. Sweeping through the series... nice. I learned to trust them. Interestingly they trusted me from the 1st night. Amazing. Enjoy! It was the worst nights sleep ever! I learned next time to relax and get some sleep. I went back 8 months later but had to sleep outside because temps were too hot. 80F at night.
Dolph C. Volker oh my gosh that is hot!
"Slice slice slice..."
"Our bladed tongue torture isn't working! The human just keeps coming back for more! He's insane!"
It really is fascinating how similar their behavior is to domesticated cats. Of course, they have much more power behind it so that's the primary concern but it's still remarkable to see how much our pet cats have retained from their wild ancestors.
I know. It is like dogs that come from timber wolves, they still have wolf in them. Cats sill have wild cat in them.
When eden was cuddled up on your neck my heart was like 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
She's grabbed peoples necks before... but nicely. Even Faith. But I would not put my trust in them that much unless I had raised them myself and stayed with them 100%.
"Cheetahs are about as tame as housecats, and just as affectionate. But that doesn't mean I don't side on the air of caution." That's good, because even my tame, lovey-dovey housecat ripped my arm to bloody shreds one day by accident, lol. He was asleep against me and mewing in his sleep (I guess with a bad dream or something). So, I stroked him--and he startled awake and attacked me before realizing what he was doing (still half-asleep I guess). When he figured out it was me, he seemed even more confused (probably also because I had cried out in pain). Blood started running down my arm from two really good slashes. I can't imagine if he was 100 pounds. No thanks. A 13 pound Norwegian is big enough for me, lol. But cheetahs do look super sweet. ♥
YES... Thanks for watching and commenting!
This man... my friends... have balls of steel... even superman didn't have balls of steel...
This is different...
maxdrags3 superman is real
Armand Human it's not like they are lions or tigers. These cheetahs are nicer than my cats lol
Armand Human Right lol.
Lol *OVER - AVERAGE MAN : THE BALLS OF STEEL*
I'm just watching this for the second time - you are going to be spoiled to death by these two - how are you going to readjust to 'normal' life - a life without these two would seem so dull
+Chickpea the Tortie I miss them SO MUCH. I left there wondering where my night time companions went. I had no idea what to expect the 1st night and I was going to quit because they didn't show up. It became the most special encounters ever and I lost why I originally did this; completely in awe. I became their focus and did not expect that.
I never had cats before, except for one... a stray outside I fed and kept to keep mice and rats away. It worked out, but never new how nice and cuddly they can be. I brought it in side and let it sleep on my bed... it was very purry and cuddly. I discovered Cheetahs were the same and it has blown me away.
+Dolph C. Volker ++++++There is no-one in the world quite like a cat. Have you thought about doing some time at Big Cat Rescue (although they do not let folks touch the cats) cougars, bobcats, lions, tigers, leopards oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh just think of it.
***** I could not survive at a place like that... without interacting with them. I'd go crazy. But with them not being humanized, they would be dangerous to people. I'd like to setup my own place with focus on Cheetahs, perhaps in Florida like Big Cat Rescue. It would be like Cheetah Experience.... with a focus on breeding and making them happy and safer to handle which means direct interaction. Raise numbers and hope to setup a gene pool sharing.
:-)
When My friends go on vacation, they bring their bengal cat to my home. When they retrieve him I get so depressed. Sadly he didn't get along with my cats, and I had to keep him in my bedroom and them in my living room.
When I go to sleep my cats always surround me and keep me warm! It's a great bonding process especially in the winter when it gets cold
I hope human never hurt cheetah for their beautiful skin
Ruiya Xiao Too late. Hundreds of years too late.
Emman Pascual lol
I hope they skin them to death
Ruiya Xiao right. I love cheetahs.
Luis Figueroa idiot
Eden and faith are the cutest cheetahs ever and it is so adorable how they love to cuddle you and get behind you and sleep on you’re pillow and your friendship is everything and it is such a calming peaceful video for sure. I love the calming affects of these videos ❤️
You are so kind
@@CheetahWhisperer Thank you ^.^ so are you
Purring? More like snoring 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂
no...
No
lol
My cat snores sometimes. It's really not loud, but very cute.
I would really like to see you on Discovery channel or National Geographic and more people admiring your work.
Thx for the confidence. One day.. perhaps. I might allow a show about captive breeding, raising, training, reqilding, and releasing cheetahs and show their true nature. I'd love to share what I am learning and have learned about cheetahs and African cats and animals. I am not ready. I need my own project and am leaning toward that goal. I already own a cheetah and it's being cared for by Cheetah Experience. it is my foundation animal. I'll have more info next year as I build partnerships and plan.
Good luck,sir 👍
This is so awesome, I appreciate what you're doing so much.
+Tiber Septim Heheh Glad you liked this! I should have one more and then a couple of special behaviors I recorded in there. These Cheetahs REALLY love human enrichment as you see. They love company and makes them happy which makes me happy which I post and makes you happy. What a concept.
+Dolph C. Volker what does a cheetah's tongue feel like in the video you said it hurts what does it feel like
+Carolina Vidal It's basically torture. Take a 10 grade piece of sandpaper... collect a 2 months supply of your trimmed fingernails and chop them up into like shards and glue them on to the sandpaper. Let dry then take that paper and start stroking your cheeks and scalp with. Do it until you can take no more and it bleeds then do it in another place, because even when you push a cheetah away from grooming one area, they just lick in another :)

Thanks I been wondering about a couple of other things as well I've been studying to become a veterinarian geologist and you seem to know a lot about animals so I was wondering a couple things about a couple of different animals....what type of animals group do u study with?
I earned a Zoology degree in the States but never got to use it. Since, I have been volunteering my time at sanctuaries and breeding centers. Bears, wolves, and now Cheetahs and Big Cats in South Africa (Cheetah Experience in Bleomfontein). This is not full time for me but I plan on it one day. I've fallen in love with Cheetahs and want to learn all I can about them. There's no better way to spend my time and money for me.
That looks heavenly to cuddle with a cat that size. Ahhh... The lion will lay down with the lamb, and the cheetah will lay down with the human. 😂😍💗
:)
For domestic regular cats, purring is a Great sign of affection and contentment. I think the love bites is just that> LOVE bites.
that's a nice harem you got there ! you lucky guy
Yeah, these two are incredible. I'll have a cool video of my camping out in the open inside a cheetah enclosure with three different cheetahs. They gather around just like Eden and Faith and lay on and around you. There's something special in the minds of cheetahs about people... even for those who didn't raise them. I barely knew these other cheetahs as well... days only.
Or maybe he chose not to care.
@@Sipu97 I am like him and that's how I reply to sarcastic or idiotic questions.
Cheetahs are my favorite big cat thanks to your videos. I can’t imagine what cuddling with something that powerful, rumbling across your neck feels like. You make it look easy. Being able to read and communicate with animals definitely isn’t something everyone can do.
I totally agree! Butni have to admit, it's these cats who accept you. Just be nice, learn their behavior, what they like and dislike and work with that. But most of these wild cats had human interaction when young and why they are so accepting. Also depends on WHO they interacted with and what gender, race and how often during the imprinting stage of these wild a cats.
This entire video is cuteness overload.
To me it's CUTENESS *MELTDOWN*
Watching this I realized the names you call them..... My 20 year old daughters name IS Eden Faith. How cool is that?!
HA!!
even with those risky love bites, this looks so sweet.
Been pinched too hard a number of times and even bled but nothing series a bandaid couldn't fix. It's a risk worth it to me with the privilege of working with big cats. I only do this a few weeks a year when volunteering.
Beautiful! They really are affectionate! That purr! As I understand it, all cats purr at approximately the same frequency - about 22 Hz. My little Sphinx does. My only experience with a big cat, a tame lion (male) named Samson, being in the enclosure with him revealed that lions DO in fact purr as well as he laid his head across my lap and I rubbed behind his ears. The only "play toy" his owners could give him that he wouldn't destroy was a bowling ball, which he loved. Quite an experience.
Yes, thanks and thx for the thoughtful laid out comment!
I'm so jealous lol I'd be asleep with all that purring 😂
Thanks for watching and commenting!
The end where the cheetah lays down facing the camera cuddled up to him made me tear up. I freaking love cats of all kind.
4:12 that cheetah said "OW!"
Not comparable with a big cat obviously..but my cat is a heckuva love biter as well..she'll purr purr purr ..lick lick lick..and then suddenly, out of the blue ..she sets her teeth in me..HARD! I've been bleeding many times. I obviously didn't want to stop having these cuddly moments with her, but also didn't want to have hands and arms looking like i've been hit by a hand grenade either.. She's also never been the kind to want to play with any toys..just my hands and feet..So, my daughter finally came up with a solution (being a master cat whisperer) . A HAIR BAND. Those elastic things. She immediately fell in love with it. So now, when she cuddles up to me, and starts grooming and purring, i keep a hairband in my hand..tickle and rub her nose and face with it..and now when she gives a love bite, she grabs the hair band between her teeth and pulls it while i hold on to it. She LOVES it. Now she walks around carrying them , playing with them, and sleeping with one next to her . When i throw them, she'll fetch like a dog and brings them back at my feet purring like mad. It's just been the best most amazing solution for the both of us.
Ironically Cheetah's aren't part of the Big Cat's.
2:40 "nu, I must clean you fur bed hooman"
The eye contact both he and the cheetah make to the camera at around 10mins is so powerful!
This is amazing and adorable!! I LOVE cheetahs... I'm a bit jealous, but I know I'd be worried about that love biting.
4:24 It's almost like Eden understood what he said and pawed him lol.
This sure is something that one would never forget
It was crazy!
I love Cheetahs!!! I would love to sleep next to them!!! You are so lucky. sweet babies!!!
+Maureen Desquitado :) They are SO sweet!!! They were like giant warm cuddly kittens. They both snuggle and very glad to have someone to share their nights with. Just incredible. I'll have part 3 posted sometime this week. Eden loves to groom you and then love bite then lay right next to your head and purr all night. Just very special.
4:11 that cheetah is like
Stop it dude
STOP ITTTTT!!!
Pretty funny watching them. Just watching them plop down right on you and start licking. I can bet you dred those licks sometimes. Not in a bad way. Just knowing they will hurt some what. I wonder if you could put something on your head or face that they would hate licking. I can also bet you never had to worry about getting cold with those big blankets on you.
+lastwolflord They both loved grooming. Most all of these Cheetahs do. I know only one that doesn't groom or purr much but he is very smart. Maybe why.
If I got cold, I'd just place my arms underneath them; like between their chest or belly. Cheetah body temperatures are much hotter than us and I would actually sweat where any part of me was touching them for very long.
I wore a hoody a few times in there when it was really cold, and Eden would chew on the strings. She was disappointed about not being able to groom me. I would let her groom at times because she loved it so much.
Finishing up Part4 now, but I need to begin Part3. I put 4 together and realized it's too long so breaking it up into two more parts. I cant release 4 until 3 is so will be both parts one after other next week.
@ SUPER glad you have joined to enjoy and learn about cheetahs and wildlife... Thanks!
Takping the best parts of the bed before you are ready is definitely what practically every house cat does. 😸
So true!
10:20 I legit thought grudge girl was in my room
Chocolate Thunder oh god don't remind me of that! Those movies scarred me
Wth
I bet you don't get many hours of sleep at night because if it was me I wouldn't be sleeping at all. Lol
True. My 1st week with them I got maybe 2 hours of sporadic sleep as i took in the awe of it all. They are terribly light sleepers as well. Spend at the most, 20 minutes without waking up, purring, shifing, looking around and listening and being nervous. It is a survival trait to avoid being killing in the wild by other predators like lions and leopards.
In subesquent volunteering, I learned to let go, relax, and sleep. I had too or would be dead tired during the day. I'd camp inside the enclosure earlier in the evening if i wanted to spend time with them 1st. Sometimes they didnt show up until hours later and wake me up, lick my face and arms, lay on me and purr until falling asleep. They loved being petted and snuggling. It is an incredible feeling having a cheetah lay its head across your face and feel its purring.
@@CheetahWhisperer I* btw and Miss.Tee Tee there's a comma after me so u guys both should practice some grammar
They really love you being there. So sweet
Thanks for watching and commenting!
12:10 I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING AS ADORABLE AS THAT
I’m experiencing this vicariously through your videos.
Welcome!
I think the rhythmic purring will make me fall asleep :)
They are gorgeous love big cats
Cheetahs have so beautiful faces.
Grooming is her affection and bites. So cute all the purring, kudos on this test you brave man.
That purring would help me sleep so well! Omg yes.
:) Thanks for watching! Commenting!
How wonderful it is to see you with your friends;I think Faith is telling Eden.."Back off while I'm grooming:I'll get to you soon,
and maybe give you some love bites!" Funny how they're both purring through it all:they take it on the chin from their friends.
This is super to see Dolph:and your commentary is fantastic.Thanks for uploading this second part of your sleeping patterns:)
ahh cute fluffy cats
It's like trying to sleep with my cats...lol
+kieralinn They are such cuddle buns.
9:51 so much love...thats a very satisfied cat...its the same look my rescue cat gets when he lays on me..like there couldnt be anythimg better than that moment...
I would have found this extremely relaxing and I would have fallen asleep immediately lol
yeah they would be fluffy as who knows what like a ball of cotten
Grooming be like
Guy: *has a follicle of hair*
Cheeta: you gonna lick that?
cheetah being like : *LICK HIM TO DEATH*
On a scale from 1/10 how soft are they?
Depends on the season (winter coat versus summer) the individual and how many and size of their black spots. Winter coats are nicer in that they fill out the undercoat. Summer they lose it but are very sleek, almost silky on their sides. The black spots have a finer fur and softer when they are covered more with black., Their heads and neck are rough coated and like a shaggy curly haired dog. Underbelly is coarse with long hairs (for cubs to snuggle and suckle). But in general, they are about average a 5. Nothing like a house cat, tiger, or leopard that are quite soft.
Dolph C. Volker Ok, thank you
SuperLegoBuilder09 10000 and can u sub to me plz
Cleveland And the dudes don't beg for subs
yeah dont beg make more vids and you need earn subs from them
Watching a person sleep with cheetahs is oddly satisfying and cool.
Eden. This is my soft now. You only brought these for us. You can sleep here but these is our blankets now, the soft is life and you came to sleep but you knew I’m here to take the soft. Blankets is our favorite. We sleep now.
What a couple of sweethearts.
This man has my respect.Thank you for showing this amazing footage! Cheers!
:)
They thought 'this orphan poor guy has no place to sleep, we'll show him some love'
they treat you as if you are their father it is so sweet. It kinda breaks my heart that animals and humans have a barrier like cheetahs. they thought they were being loving yet they didnt understand it hurt you. if only there was a way to break that barrier of understanding
My cat, Max,(who died about 2 years ago, unfortunately) was just as loving as these two. He would also always snuggle up to my face and purr for such a long time. He also liked just literally lying down on my face lmao.
OMG IT WAS SO CUTE WHEN ONE STARTED LICKING THE MAN AND THEN THE OTHER ONE CAME IN AND STARTED LICKING THE OTHER ONE HAHAHA
such beautiful creatures!
7:24 It was sweet of you to apologize when you rejected the love bite
:) I have empathy for animals and try understanding them. Faith loves to love bite to show affection and sooth herself.
Simply precious.
"Her tongue was cutting my face"
This is a literal dream
Truly!
Its only 10 AM and this video is making me sleepy. Those cheetas are so cute! And that purring was so calming.
Faith said "let me bite your eye, friend. " lol
Eden, Faith's old friend, used to nibble my eyebrows! No joke. Cheetahs love grooming and nibbling hair!
So cute. It's interesting even though they are such big cats and you know they could eat you, it's amazing to see them displaying the same exact behaviours as smaller domestic cats with the grooming and purring to indicate trust and affection to show they are relaxed with you. I was just reading about cats in ancient Egypt recently and in particular about how big cats were worshipped as Gods and watching this made me wonder whether or not humans had closer relationships to cheetahs and other big cats in the past not just the desert sand cats that became the precursor to the domestic cats.
they're so happy you've come to sleep with them, my cat lays sleeps with me at night, I think its his favourite time
Glad you cat spends nice nights with you. And it is so true about them loving sleeping with you. I spent this past July with them and it was unreal, after the 1st night when I showed them I was back again, they were inside their cheetah house by 7:00pm every night. It was just amazing. They jostle for the closest snuggle near you and keep you warm and purred all night. They don't sleep well, restless as any sound wakes them up. A survival trait. I didn't get but maybe 5-6 hours total sleep. Up and down, new position, purr lay close, lick and purr some more then finally lay their heads down to sleep. It was amazing though.
Awwww, big kitty cats
Oh, I envy you! I would love to work with cheetahs too, they're my favorite of the big cats. They remind me of my little domestic house cats... LOVE their purring!
Ahh I hope you get to meet one. The Cheetah purr is my favorite sound now. I've recorded some hours of it and plan on making a long cheetah purr video. I love Eden's purr the most. If you hold her and wrap your arms around her, she purrs even louder :)
I would love listening to a purr like that all night!
Cheetah purrs are the nicest natural sound I've ever heard.
That would make me sleep so nice. I sleep with 10 cats already so I know about the warmth lol I'm always toasty, and they always move around readjust in the night but I never wake up lol
Your relationship with all the cats and others animals is amazing! You are heaven sent. Love the videos. Thank you ☺😇
They like babies so cute
I love how he uses faith as a pillow 😂
This video gave me sooo much anxiety. But I’m amazed at his courage! You go brother😂😂
This is by far one of the most adorable things I have EVER seen in my life
My cat started purring and suckling on my finger when the cheetahs did. This is one of the cutest video I've ever seen.
Cool!
so big cats like hickies.. at least they can hide them under their fur :)

hi wife complains he sleeps with a cheetah and not her
I LOVE the purring... Being a Cat Mom of 3 house cats... I'm new here... Love it already! Much LOVE from South Texas!
Cuddled by a Cheetah! Lol! Now that's something that won't be crossed of on many bucket lists. This was awesome!
Man you got me scared when they start jumping OMG lol
It's really amazing games that the other cheetah knows eden is disabled and tries to teach her it's not good. and looks after her more
Aadil Dawud Faith is disabled, Eden is not.
Aadil Dawud what 🙃
it's not the realisation of disability, it's usually boundaries... you overstep them and they will let you know
I truly enjoy your videos Dolph! This is so awesome to see how they act at night time before bed. And that purr is so loud lol
It's just amazing that it's almost like they know it's not aggression when Faith love bites and just warns..so beautiful. I hope one day we learn to not hurt there's beautiful animals.
