"The chairman and the gaffer know what I think of the club and so do the players," Cahill told the club's official website. "It is amazing!
"The chairman knows my thoughts, I will sign here for life. He knows my thoughts on what I love about this club.
"I respect everyone so much and hopefully I am here for a long time."
He added: "The likes of Tony Hibbert and Leon Osman have helped me all the way during my time at Everton. Also people like Phil Neville, he is someone I have massive respect for.
"I love this club, I have been here for six years and I have grown fonder every year.
"It is a dream come true and still to this day I enjoy going to training and I enjoy playing with these guys. We are very privileged and it is a massive honour."
