Cheetahs make a variety of sounds, and unlike most big cats, they can’t roar — but they do purr, chirp, hiss, growl, and even meow! Their purring is soft and steady, usually heard when they’re relaxed, happy, or bonding — a bit like a house cat, but deeper and more rhythmic. When excited or calling to each other (especially moms to cubs), they make high-pitched chirps that sound almost birdlike.

Did you know cheetahs purr at a frequency of 25 to 150 Hz? 🐾 This soothing sound isn’t just adorable—it’s believed to promote healing and relaxation! Unlike big cats like lions and tigers, cheetahs don’t roar. Instead, they purr continuously, even while inhaling and exhaling. 🐾💕 These incredible animals are nature’s stress-relief machines, reminding us of the beauty and power of the wild. 🌿✨ #animalconservation #cheetah | Cheetah Experience

CHEETAH PURRS! It's rare for humans to hear a cheetah purring, since most of the big cats are not relaxed enough to purr when a person is nearby. But this cheetah, who was hand-raised by zookeepers, is all too happy to purr when he's near them! STORY: https://bit.ly/2YsPDu2 | FOX 13 News - Tampa Bay
