Do cats remember their owners after years?

While there's no definitive "IQ score" for cat memory, evidence strongly suggests cats do remember their owners after years, particularly if the bond was strong. They primarily rely on associative memory, linking positive experiences and consistent care with their owner's presence. Studies indicate cats recognize their owner's voice even after long separations, and their ability to differentiate familiar faces further supports long-term recall.
