Baby cheetahs are called cubs.

Females reach sexual maturity in 20 to 24 months, and males around 12 months (although they do not usually mate until at least 3 years old), and mating occurs throughout the year. Females give birth to up to nine cubs after a gestation period of ninety to ninety-eight days, although the average litter size is 3 to 5. Cubs weigh from 150 to 300 g (5 to 10 oz.) at birth. Unlike some other cats, the Cheetah is born with its characteristic spots. Cubs are also born with a downy underlying fur on their necks, called a mantle, extending to mid-back. This gives them a mane or Mohawk-type appearance; this fur is shed as the Cheetah grows older. It has been speculated that this mane gives a Cheetah cub the appearance of the Ratel, to scare away potential aggressors.

Death rate is very high during the early weeks, and up to 90% of the cubs are killed during this time by the Lion, hyenas or even by eagles. Cubs leave their mother between thirteen and twenty months after birth. The Cheetah can live over twenty years, but its life is often short, for it loses its speed with old age.

Little cheaters (well, that's how they say it in Boston. LOL.) The real answer is cubs.

Random guess. Since cheetahs are felines (cats), I'd probably call their offspring kittens.
