Of course, if you go out of town and come back, you forfeit all your progress and have to start over at level 1.

I don't think that's universally true. Back when my partner had recently moved in with me, we found one of those pet spas to leave their cat at as we had to go out of town (terrible idea, in retrospect, and current me would say it would've been better for her to just have had someone come by the house to periodically check on her but not the point of this story).

Due to scheduling of when we got back, my partner stayed home while I went to pick up the cat; as soon as I got there, she came out the room crying and I thought she was coming to greet me but she sped past me and went around the outside room, still crying, and searching.

There is nothing on Earth that will convince me that she wasn't determinedly looking for my partner. That cat loves them and, while she expresses affection in the sort of stereotypical cat way (unlike our boy who has designated times, every day, he comes over to be fawned over), she would be devastated to lose my partner (or me, at this point, I like to think). She likes her space and for there to be a certain level of protocol followed when it comes to interaction but there's no doubt in my mind that she's very ingrained-ly attached.
