Painting of 2025!

I'm finishing this year pretty discouraged and tired to be honest. I'm all for trying to have a positive outlook but truly i have no energy for this anymore. I hope 2026 will be kinder.

Unfortunately this piece became unusable because of the rip in the paper, however it's one of my personal favourites because I painted it from a memory of my childhood in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. I keep in a frame by my bed.

Paper: Fabriano Artistico/ 100% cotton/ cold press

Brushes: Da Vinci Petit Gris Pur mop, Escoda Optimo liner/ Silver Black Velvet rounds

Paint: A. Gallo

First thing is to drop them before they drop you. But if you do get grabbed, you need to hit them where it hurts. The points that are weak on everyone are here, here, and here. Stay down! Stay down, bitch! And always make sure your opponent can't get up again.

Fun fact: Cheetahs only attack prey that runs

[youwinagainmoffat-blog]

jesus that is good to know.

Yup, that’s the point you just stay still and let it do whatever the fuck it wants that doesn’t involved you getting eaten.

REALLY FUN FACT for big cats cheetahs are fucking docile as shit

my grandfather ran a cheetah sanctuary in south africa and he’d just lie with them and sleep among them and they’d rub against him and chirp at him they’re big fucking babies

[pkmnbreederbrianna]

Another Fun Fact: Cheetahs are incredibly nervous animals. One of the (many) reason’s they’re going extinct is that cheetahs are so sensitive and nervous, some of them are literally too nervous to breed. Others will breed, but stress themselves out so much, they’ll lose their cubs. So zoos with breeding programs had to figure out how to make cheetahs comfortable enough to first of all, get laid and secondly - not spazz themselves into miscarrying. So what’d they do? They gave the cheetah’s their very own Service Dogs! The dogs make them feel safe, protected and secure!

the anxiety cat

[peppermint-madness]

Also! Cheetahs are not in fact classified as big cats, they are simply very large lesser cats, due to the fact that they purr, meow, chirp, and cannot roar. Also many cheetahs have learned to recognize wildlife photographers are friends and not foes, so they will just come up to people and be friendly occasionally as pictured at the top of the chain. Some will even leave their Cubs with photographers to look after while they hunt. So. Yeah. Cheetahs are great

[elfwreck]

[bunjywunjy]

this works because cheetahs are actually fairly social animals, and they look to members of their group for context on how worried they should be about any given Situation. but since cheetahs are also nervous social animals, they can work each other into an anxiety spiral pretty easily over things like “being in an enclosed habitat” and “there’s a guy over there”.

so by introducing a dog as a member of the group, the cheetahs will now look to the dog for context clues on how worried they should be! and the dog Is Not Worried At All, Thanks, so the cheetahs think everything must be chill even if they were personally unsure about it, and they stop being so freaked out about literally everything.

Logically I know there must be a reason that the dogs chosen for this all seem to be golden retrievers

…but I can’t help but feel like we really missed an opportunity with Dalmations, here.

[alexseanchai]

if I’m understanding correctly, dalmatians were bred (among other things) for a temperament intended to make all potential threats more nervous, which is a useful trait in a guard dog but seems like a problem waiting to happen when any other cheetah approaches the one this dalmatian is guarding

and golden retrievers were bred (among other things) for calmness and gentleness, which makes them shit guard dogs but great emotional support companions
