    When my cat looks at her reflection and makes noises at the “other cat” on the other side if the mirror, I’m pretty sure she’s not aware of how she looks like

        Cats rely more on their acute hearing to be aware of who is in the room. I’m sure if you play a cat video on TV it will get a reaction

      That isn’t true for all cats though, many are fully aware they’re seeing themselves. As with humans, individuals of any other species have different levels of intelligence.
