The main difference between a "big cat" species and a "small cat" species is a small bone in their throats that allows them to either roar or purr
Therefore, cheetahs, who can't roar but purr, are small cats
And that's why I should be allowed to have one as a pet
@colon_three therefore small cat and perfectly suitable as a roommate/pet
@colon_three yay! wanna brushy the cat!
@troubleMoney you say that but I'm told they're pretty easy to tame
the egyptians used em as hunting animals
@troubleMoney mountain lions also purr
