I’ll call my cat, who is facing away from me, and the ears swivel back in periscope fashion. But, that’s the only thing that moves.

Not always true. It depends on the cat, and how they were domesticated.
I had a barn kitten that fell asleep in my lap, the first day mama brought them out of hiding. And that is where he stayed until the day he died.
All I had to do was say his name, and he would come running from wherever he was, and plop in my lap.

Dogs have owners. Cats have staff.
(and I love 'em both)

I can call my cat from anywhere in the house and he will come running.
(I have to use the special cat call though, which sounds just like a can of food being opened...)

Exactly. I could be lying on the ground dying and calling the cat and it would just look at my and go on its way.

Any cat trained properly will do what you want them too.
Cats just have to be taught that YOU are dominant from a very young age. You do this by holding them belly up in a cradle type position from the time they are a small kitten. If you do this they will display nearly all the traits that dog owners love about their pets, and nearly none of the negative traits associated with cats.

They were not domesticated to work with people as dogs were and consequently feel themselves our equals.EQUALS????
To: boatbums
On the contrary, our cats see my wife and I as interesting subjects for observation. As such, they come to see us when we get home and follow us around the house when a very necessary nap doesn’t require attention. They also are attentive to instructing us as to the proper feeding and care of cats.

A black panther here used to come out at night and raid the henhouses. If you went out he would follow you everywhere. I think he thought I was going to open the chicken coops for him.
Raccons, on the other paw, will come when I call them by name and they never ignore me. Squirrels will always come when I lie to them and tell them I have peanuts. Same for chipmunks. Opposums tend to ignore me as well as skunks and fishers,...
Bobcats also just run away.

What greater gift than the love of a cat. ― Charles Dickens If animals could speak, the dog would be a blundering outspoken fellow; but the cat would have the rare grace of never saying a word too much. ― Mark Twain But who is the one who said something like, 'he is my cat but I own him not'?
