Gerda is very relaxed about the ear cleaning procedure, even though it is a new and unfamiliar procedure to her. To be more exact Sasha already did it once, but until that moment she did not know what it is. She even seems to enjoy it)))
That's how feline family units clean each other though. A cat can only get to so much of their own body to clean it themselves, and so they rely on mutual cleaning as part of bonding affection. You clean my missed spots, I clean yours.
If I did not see it, I would not have believed it. The way this family is with big cats and the way the cats are with them is nothing short of astounding.
@@alohafromthe3033 I was just thinking this myself. When my cat wants to do a "mutual groom," she will hook me with claw or fang to keep me in place 🥲 Just imagine if this big cat had my cat's mentality lol.
Brought my cat to the vet when he was a kitten because he was a rescue. He loved the ear cleaning! Leaned into it, purred real hard, the works! That was about the only part he enjoyed, though.
My cat loves it and purrs esp if her ears are itchy because she has allergies so she want me to clean her ears. I love how cats are as unique as humans lol
@@nonsobenaiah6332 Cheetahs are very even-tempered cats, far more likely to use their speed to evade predation than to fight. As a result, they usually become very loving cats when raised by humans.
Slightly warmed olive oil on a small piece of cotton ball, gently rub... they will be begging for more. Our one cat lays there and drooooooooools while i clean his ears. They even like the taste of the oil.
I've had cats that loved it, and had cats that hated it. Sammy had some truly disgusting ears, and she would hop on my desk (where she knew I kept a huge stash of her ear cleaning supplies) and ask to have her ears cleaned at least twice a week, sometimes three, and you always came away with enough wax to make a fricken candle with. :P She always purred like a V8 the whole time. Sissy you couldn't get into the same room with a Q-tip with her, but it didn't really matter, because the once a year or so that I insisted, it was pretty much always clean. Also funny, because she was always SO insulted afterwards, and wouldn't show any kitty love for a few days.
At first, I thought this guy was so lucky to own such a well behaved cougar. But seeing the cheetahs behaviour now makes me think they are amazing owners
What a beautiful cat! She loves her daddy too. She can't pet you back so she licks instead. Thank you for taking care of this wonderful creature. Cheers Terry from South Carolina USA
I really hate it when people criticize their pets. You are very blessed to even have your cat. Maybe you don’t spend enough time with her. Maybe you aren’t sensitive to her feelings. I’m sure the problem is you and not the kitty. Why can’t you just love her as she is?
Such a beautiful cheetah! And what a bond these two have! My domestic cat loves it when I clean out his ears also - not that a domesticated animal can be compared with a wild animal. Also, my cat’s tongue is rough & raspy. I imagine a cheetah’s tongue is even more so. But, a lovely video. A joy…
@@rhondasisco-cleveland2665 people say that about deer too, and sometimes, yes, but primarily it is self soothing .. We do excrete much more than salt though, minerals & compounds from the foods we eat..like the smell of our urine is noticeably distinct after eating certain foods..the skin is the largest excretory organ..call it "#3" Eeew, but true!
It does feel good for dogs too. These animals can't clean their ears and faces and I'm guessing they rely on each other for that. The cat was just reciprocating the favor.
@@marshahovenesian8142 two of my cats would scratch the shit out of me if I tried that, the third one wouldn't like it and try to get away but he wouldn't scratch me.
I think it’s amazing that Gerda lets you clean her ears and eyes without making a fuss. I can’t do this to my dog or cat without making them very angry with me. Gerda is wonderful!
I laughed when he said he could grow potatoes. After playing hard as a child, my mother would say: you are so dirty, you have tater rows. (Rows of dirt in my neck that I could grow potatoes). Thank you for the memory. Your Cat is a very beautiful girl!!
What a drag, I couldn't even hear that. I'm 80% deaf and wear hearing aids, so I need the captions, but I can hear a little bit. Just sad that I can never hear a cat purr again. I've even tried to put my ears right up to my cat's neck to hopefully hear him, but nope... Boo! I miss the purring sound of cats. I can't even imagine how awesome this cat's purr must be. Such a beautiful cat this is too. 🙂
@@Kennisaurus No vibrations, but I finally was able to hear her a little bit when I changed some settings on my hearing impaired soundbar. It also helped turning the TV up really really loud.😁 she sure is beautiful.
Sasha is grooming Gerda, so of course Gerda grooms him back! Allogrooming of the ears is very common among felines of all kinds. Gerda must trust Sasha very much. BTW, I didn't know that cheetahs could keep up a continuous two-way purr the way a house cat does.
I'm 66 yrs old and I've never ever seen a more mellow and loving animal in my life ❤♥! Sasha cleaning her ears and she's kissing him what a Amazing girl I'm sure she's loved by all of us who follow her! In fact I can be confident that we all love all 4 of you!!!!! God bless you guys your the best!!! Love from Minnesota aka Messisota and Gerdasota WWG1WGA!
I love how Gerda always shows her affection for Momma and Poppa. Sometimes for no reason and always for everything you do for her. She appreciates everything. Loving sweet girl that she is.
I got two housecats and they both love it when i clean their ears. Seems to calm and relax them. Almost therapeutic to the both of them. Glad to see the similarities between big and small cats.
That’s an incredible point I didn’t even think of lol. It’s almost like they’re just not afraid cause they don’t seem themselves as potential pray for humans so they just end up seeing them as companions
Gerda is a sweet girl. She has no problems to have her ears clean. She is licking Sasha a lot. My favorite purring cheetah. She is so adorable./ Gerda es tan dulce. No tiene problems en dejar que Sasha le limpie los oídos. Lame a Sasha muchísimo. Mi guepardo favorita que ronronea sin cesar.
Awwww, Gerda is a very sweet girl who loves to give kisses to Dad, Mom or whoever is there. She is a very good cheetah 🐆 so loving and beautiful. And it is amazing how well Gerda behaved when Dad was cleaning her ears……my dogs ran away from me when I did that! 😂😂 But not Gerda, she is a gentle soul. And Masha is right, Gerda does look like a Princess being so elegant and classy. Very cute Gerda. you are very cute 🥰 from the USA with kisses to Gerda! 😘😘😘😘😘😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Вот так наверно и будет в будущем на ВСЕЙ земле^ люди и животные будут любить друг друга и заботится как в этом видео_ это пример всем людям и животным_ это очень радостно и приятно видеть_ красота!!!!
как ЯДОЛЖНО быть! Саша и Маша - пример человека от слова ЧЕЛЛОВЕЧНОСТЬ! Пример для понимания и подражания. Или оно станет ТАК, или людская био-масса уничтожит себя сама! Природный и животный мир без человека не только выживет, но и расцветёт. А вот человек без природы......
Gerda is like this guy first flirts with me now he acts like he wants to whisper things in my ear. But I get my spa treatment. It's because of my sweet loving papa. That I look pretty :)
Lol I remember trying to do it to a kitten and he kept avoiding me for sometime. Then after a while he seemed to have changed its mind and licked my fingers and didn't resist me trying to pick him up
I had a little kitten that adopted me, but he had ear mites. My vet gave me ear drops for him, and told me how to clean them. He took it pretty much the same way Gorda did. It's obvious that they love each other.
I have never liked the idea if keeping a wild animal as a pet as itnis inherently a dangerous proposition but this girl is truly so sweet and loves you so much. Her constant purring is adorable!
She's so beautiful. You guys are so unbelievably lucky. I would give much and more to just to be in her presence so close. 5 mins with her would be like winning the lottery for me.
Вот это да! Дикий, по природе, зверь и человек. Но уровень доверия и взаимоотношения какой! А вот из ролика непонятно, кто кому гигиену произвел! Мне кажется, что Герда Сашу помыла!!! ну и Саша молодец! Стоически перенес помывку.
Came up on recommended videos - no regrets. "you could grow potatoes in those ears." was something my grandmother used to say to me. There's no question about the bond here. Thank you for the Dopamine, with love from UK
You both are so kind to these cats. Animal lovers. I have nothing but great respect for you both. I love your videos and love how well you take care of them. Outstanding.
