What I love is when your cat is sitting facing the opposite way and you call their name and they whip their head around in your direction, meow than come bonding to you like "Yes Mama? You called me?"
And reason why I love this is because everyone always tells you no cats every answer to their name. They are assholes who think of you as peasant. But when. They answer to their name and meow like they are answering back makes me feel like they respect and love you as much as you love them.
I have videos of my cat meowing and then jogging across the house to see my mom after she calls him, cats are definitely affectionate if you create the bond needed for it.
All four of mine know their names as well and would respond when I call. How they respond is different though haha. But the one who is attached the most, no matter where she was or what she was up to, when I call her and leave my hand dangling I would have a furball bumping her head into my palm in 10 seconds or less. If I see her and call she does the loud mmmrrrow purr where they don’t open their mouth but say yes questioningly. I love them so much :D
