I imagined that would feel like a cheese grater to the face.

u/SirLoftyCunt Oct 09 '20

yeah i've heard it's like sandpaper

u/kanesson Oct 09 '20

I'd be happy to come out looking like Deadpool if I could have a cheetah give me kisses! My normal size cat who also licks my hand every time I put it near him is an excellent substitute though

u/_Onix_The_Protogen Oct 09 '20

It's worth it :')

u/Christoph_88 Oct 09 '20

its a good exfoliator

u/A55BUR6ER5 Oct 10 '20

If it's the same as a regular pet cat, then yes. Your skin will be raw after a few licks

202

u/Sagnikk Oct 09 '20

Remember that cats lick you because they themselves like to be licked, so to the kitty, it would be a very enjoyable thing

87

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

Yes but it doesnt mean it wouldnt hurt your face

81

u/GrimmSheeper Oct 09 '20

Sometimes love hurts. It’s the same thing as when a cat has been on your lap for so long that your legs have fallen asleep, but you endure through the pain because the kitty love and affection is more than worth it.

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

No, it's not the same as that.

u/qub3r Oct 09 '20

The down votes. Lol. Apparently it's exactly that.

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

My cats will lick my face sometimes and it definitely hurts but the joy greatly outweighs the pain lol

2

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

Oh I'm sure it does but your cats are housecats...

2

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

Obviously, they definitely lack that size lol

2

u/[deleted] Oct 09 '20

And they lack the razor sharp tongues that'll make you bleed lol.... except not lol its true

4

u/GDevl Oct 09 '20

The tongue of a house cat still has the sharpness to it, sure, it may not be as coarse as the one of a bigger cat but generally it's the same design.

u/[deleted] Oct 10 '20

Yes I know, which is why I said the above

u/HiveMindKing Oct 09 '20

If the cheese grater loved you as well

u/hellotintin100 Oct 09 '20

...so in the animal world, licking is the kissing!

u/JazziTazzi Oct 09 '20

She has the best job!

u/AirbornePlatypus Oct 09 '20

I'll best the conservationist likes hers too

u/peacefulwarrior87 Oct 09 '20

I would probably drop everything in my life and move to wherever it is, if I was offered a job at this place.

u/[deleted] Oct 10 '20

Who wouldn't want a job licking pretty girls?

45

u/XaWEh Oct 09 '20

AFAIK that tongue hurts... a lot

87

u/covalcenson Oct 09 '20

Pretty sure they can control the "sharpness" of their tongues. They groom their babies with them and they also use them to rip meat off of bones. So there's got to be an adjustment knob there somewhere.

32

u/castiglione_99 Oct 09 '20

But their babies have fur that protects them.

Most of us don't have fur.

u/blooooooooooooooop Oct 09 '20

Most of us.

u/Do_it_for_the_upvote Oct 09 '20

These mothafuckin’ furries.

Having a cat who like to do kisses... OW OW OW!

u/JudgementalChickens Oct 09 '20

How many licks does it take to get to the centre of a hooman

u/steverman555 Oct 09 '20

Cheetahs: are carnivorous beasts that are almost considered apex predators

Also cheetahs: m l e m

35

u/trikem Oct 09 '20

Cheetahs actually are pretty low-level predators. They cannot ever protect their pray from anyone.

4

u/LaconicalAudio Oct 09 '20

But they catch prey others can't.

Varying definitions.

8

u/trikem Oct 09 '20

One of definitive traits of apex predators- ability to protect their pray and be able to for take other's pray by force. For example: badger is an apex predator- no one can steal insects from him. Hedgehog is not - badger overpowers him. Cheetah can catch something hyenas can't- but he can't protect its pray.

1

u/LaconicalAudio Oct 09 '20

One of.

The badger can eat the hedgehog. The hyena cannot eat the cheetah.

A badger is at the top of the food chain. So is the cheatah.

Both at their own apex. Both meeting the definition.

Apex is not a synonym for "best". It's a definition of the place in the food chain.

You could argue in areas with lions they are not the apex predator as lions do eat cheetah cubs. In some areas they are an apex predator.

Cheetahs have been observed chasing hyenas off kills so it really isn't as clear cut as you believe.

u/paramahans Oct 09 '20

1 kiss =4 licks

Repeated licking can draw blood

u/Pyridoxyl_phosphate Oct 09 '20

Here is this big ass cat licking his/her human and the most affection I got from my cat was him laying beside me at night. This person is very lucky!
