BLOEMFONTEIN, SOUTH AFRICA: HR Assistant Heather Tookey on a lunch break with 19-month old cheetah Dew. ARE YOU FELINE the love? Pictures show how a British girl-next-door can become BFFs with a cheetah – and enjoy sleepovers, sunbathing and taking selfies, just like any other girlie-friendship. Since regularly visiting her pal, an African cheetah called Dew (19 months), human resources assistant Heather Tookey (21) from Beckenham, London even enjoys pyjama parties after sun-filled days playing chase.
