We Know!
Cats have amazing hearing ability. A cat’s ear has 30 muscles that control the outer ear (by comparison, human ears only have 6 muscles). These muscles rotate 180 degrees, so the cat can hear in all directions without moving its head.

At our house Carlos is always up first and he feeds the cats.
I was telling him this morning how funny it is that, when I wake up, Tuxedo is no where around, but as soon as I throw off the blankets, he's right there on the bed.
He hears the sheets rustle from the kitchen and he comes running!
Same with Brigit. If I am in various rooms and then either lie on the bed or sit in my favorite reading/napping chair, she's right there in a matter of minutes. She always knows where I am. She comes when I call her if she wants to.
My cats can hear the food bowls being picked up off the kitchen floor - even if I make attempts to be silent.
XOXOXOXOXO
You are not my real Mom, Geronimo will say that to me. He is a spoil little one. He is not a house cat. But whenever he hears me on the street he acknowledges me.
