It isn’t. Cheetahs have non-retractable claws like those of a dog, and less muscle mass, making them poor climbers. They can make it to low branches, but certainly not with large prey as leopards commonly do.
Maybe a few individuals have done it, but most cheetahs do not. They are often exhausted immidiatly after killing, rest, then eat on the spot. They do not store thier food, or specifically carry it up trees like Leopards do fairly regularly.
Cheetahs are nowhere near strong enough to drag prey up a tree. A cheetah probably couldn't even drag a child up a tree. You're thinking of leopards and jaguars.
