Cheetahs can be like regular household cats as these agile beasts hide an affectionate and clingy side. Just like your tabby, these big cats are choosy. They favor certain people — and we don't even want to talk about what happens if the cheetah doesn't like you!

Eden, the cheetah, has taken a complete liking to volunteer Dolph C. Walker at the Cheetah Experience in South Africa where the 3-year-old feline was born and raised.

The thing about being friends with a cat is that they think of you as one of their own and treat you like one.

In Walker's case, whenever he naps under the tree, Eden comes toward him to groom and nibble him. Cheetah's have thick white hair on their tongues, so their licks hurt a little.

And, yes, just like every other cat owner, Walker gets his fair share of love bites, reported Sun Gazing.

When she's done nibbling on Walker, Eden finds her comfortable spot on Walker's shoulders. The big feline is fast to fall asleep just like a tabby walking into her owner's bed. This wild creature is just a little bigger!
