They gave a cheetah to Queen Victoria and it lived in the Tower of London.

I just learned, after reading this article, that India has leopards. Never knew.

But cheetahs can be tamed to an extent, and have rather dog-like behavior. Leopards are like mountain lions - permanent bad attitudes. :)

Cheetah are easy to tame and rarely harm humans even in the wild. They like being scratched under their chins and are the largest cat that purrs. I would love to be able to afford to have one.

Leopards are a very different cat. Beautiful but I am not petting one no matter how tame their handler tells me it is.
