random thought: I’ve had Gracie since she was 7 weeks old if that. Is she aware I’ve been her ‘mummy’ from kinda the start ..is there a difference between when you adopt a cat latter or early in their life ? Do they know ?
Gracie knows, remembers and undoubtedly returns every ounce of Love you give her. Think of her as a furry little computer who sheds.
The answers to questions regarding cat cognition are rarely straightforward, and this is no exception. The answer is no, they are not aware, at least not in the manner that we are aware of our early caregivers. However (and its a BIG however) the full story is more complex, and to my mind, much sweeter...Is she aware I’ve been her ‘mummy’ from kinda the start.....
