It's not often that I experience envy. Still, I have to admit that this video makes me wish I were enjoying in a quiet day in the sun instead of bracing myself to face winter.

The video was shot at the Fossil Rim Wildlife Center in Texas some days ago. The three cheetahs cubs featured in it are one male and two females.

They were all born at this facility on October 12 to first-time mom Gracie. The cubs' dad is 8-year-old Bruce.

There is little denying that the cheetah mom is just crazy about her little bundles of joy, otherwise she probably would not allow them to try and bite her tongue, or keep pouncing on her.

Keepers at the Center say that the cubs are all healthy, and, judging by how active they seem to be, I might add that they are also in high spirits.
