my cats know their individual names as well as the name of the other

do they understand the concept of a name? no idea, but they recognize the sound and know which one is being called

Our cats 100% know their names and will respond individually. When they feel like it. There was a recent study confirming this. Not of my cats, but cats in general.

My friend had a cat named Possum and had to put it down (like two days ago)

They took it to a new vet and they were ticking things off on the chart and opened the carrier to see that it was not, in fact, a marsupial

"Oh... OH! Let's get you to the cat room"

Scientific American posted:

Cats are notorious for their indifference to humans: almost any owner will testify to how readily these animals ignore us when we call them. But a new study indicates domestic cats do recognize their own names—even if they walk away when they hear them.

Atsuko Saito, a behavioral scientist now at Sophia University in Tokyo, previously showed that cats can recognize their owner’s voice. In her latest study, which involved 78 cats from Japanese households and a “cat café,” she homed in on responses to their names.

Saito and her colleagues first had owners repeatedly say four words that sounded similar to their cats’ names until the animals habituated to those words and stopped responding. Next the owners said the actual names, and the researchers looked at whether individual cats (when living among other cats) appeared able to distinguish their monikers. The cats had more pronounced responses to their own names—meowing or moving their ears, heads or tails—than to similar words or other cats’ names, according to the study, which was published in April in Scientific Reports.

The researchers also had people unfamiliar to the cats speak the names. Although the felines’ responses were less prominent than when their owners called them, they still appeared to recognize their names.
