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.
