I have loved the King Cheetah for a LONG time. Cheetah's were my favorite big cat long before tigers or lions, since the run fast. Then I found out about the King Cheetah, and fell deeper in love with them. IN case you didn't know a King Cheetah is NO different than a regular Cheetah-at least genetically speaking--the only difference being that they carry a recessive "tabby" gene that creates their striking markings. In one report I read it said there has also been documented cheetahs with "blue" markings and "liver" markings---now I would LOVE to see images of those!

A liver color or marking would be a cheetah with chocolate colored stripes and nose instead of black--it is the gene that creates the color like a Chocolate lab.
