Africa Cheetah Picks Out Own Toys As A Cub & Adult & Plays - Big Cat With A Fun Personality

I really like Kenji. I've often wondered how intelligent cheetahs are and Kenji is the brightest I've come across so far. Probably why he doesn't purr often... only doing it when it really counts for him.

Kenji learned at a young age where the cheetah toys were stored. Slamming the lid is a calling card for him to play. He can't open the crate himself, but he helps himself to the toy he wants if someone holds it open. Toys are a potential hazard for a cheetah, like the cotton stuffing or any part that might get swallowed, so they are to be supervised at all times when playing with their toys and returned when done, thus the sealed crate.
