Decided to start my summer vacation from nursing school by drawing a new character

This is Asali, her name means "honey". She is a lesser-spotted (or spotless) cheetah (Acinonyx jubatus). Yes, these cheetahs exist (though extremely rare). She's not made up. I love my mutant big cats

I'm so used to drawing lion anatomy, I had to brush up on my cheetah anatomy for this ^^; Shameful, considering I used to work with cheetahs.

I'm in the process of developing the rest of her family
