    Ah, aren’t cheetahs the ultimate sweethearts though? They can even retract their fangs so you don’t have to feel threatened! Not many gentle giants among cats, you know

      Fangs as in teeth? No cats can do that. If you meant claws, then I think yes cheetahs are the only big cats that can somewhat retract their claws.

      I read something wrong. It said something about cheetahs only being able to “semi”-retract their claws and I must have misread it as only cheetahs could semi-retract while other big cats couldn’t.

        Cheetahs are not a big cat and they’re non retractable like a dogs (I’ve been around hundreds) all big cats have retractable claws
