How brave is my Mum and Dad????

Crikey is this brave or what?????  Mum and Dad went to the zoo in Canberra and they patted a Cheetah.  It was a few years ago now but my best feline friend, forever, Madi told us all about the Cheetah in her endangered series post and I said I would show her the photos of Mum and Dad patting a cheetah so here they are. Mum was dead scared.  The zoo keeper told them not to pat below their neck as they LOVED having their head and ears played with but HATED WITH A PASSION being touched elsewhere. So Dad, who's not good at listening or following rules, was patting away and, as he usually does, kept getting over enthused and his hand was getting lower and lower down the cheetah's back.  Mum thought that cheetah was going to freak out and give Dad what for but thank goodness he didn't seem to mind and just lay there like a good.  Pretty neat, aye??

Mum was worried about the one right under the trees. He was wide awake and kept flicking his tail .

Crikey they're beautiful.

I wonder if they can run as fast as me?????

Wanna run ..... Love, Charlie.
