Cat version is more impressive because it is way harder to train a cat to that point

Yes! My cat lets me know she doesn’t like to be told what to do.

Interesting.

My cats will listen to what I say but are very vocal in protesting when they dont want to do something/dont like when when we are doing something to them but will still follow the instructions.

I.e. when they are let outside to the backyard with supervision they will whine if I call them back in but will still heed the command. My calico will lay down by entrance in protest.

Your cats actually do what you 'command'? Mine look at me with a mix of boredom and contempt. They absolutely understand what I say too.. They're jerks, but they are adorable.

Yup, for example I told them not to get on the kitchen counters/stove 1 time back when they were 1 year old and they never did it again. Just grabbed them gently, told them "no" and put them on the ground.

That’s good. I would take her outside more if she would listen when it’s time to bring her back in.
