Show CDP Neighbors in L3 Switch

I have the topology shown below.
When I run Show CDP neighbors on each Switch, I can see just one switch as neigh instead of 2 Switches. I am not sure why this is happening.
Any help will be very much appreciated

Thanks

mmm....
I have not enabled it manually at all...but I believe it is enabled by default:
Switch01#sh cdp
Global CDP information:
        Sending CDP packets every 60 seconds
        Sending a holdtime value of 180 seconds
        Sending CDPv2 advertisements is  enabled

Mistake in the topology.....now it is working, though it showing something weird:
SW1#sh cdp neighbors 
Capability Codes: R - Router, T - Trans Bridge, B - Source Route Bridge
                  S - Switch, H - Host, I - IGMP, r - Repeater, P - Phone, 
                  D - Remote, C - CVTA, M - Two-port Mac Relay 

Device ID        Local Intrfce     Holdtme    Capability  Platform  Port ID
SW4              Eth 0/3           159              R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/3
SW4              Eth 0/2           139              R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/2
Switch           Eth 0/3           49               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/3
Switch           Eth 0/2           41               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/2
Switch           Eth 0/1           33               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/1
Switch           Eth 0/0           30               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/0

I wonder why this output is there:
Switch           Eth 0/3           49               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/3
Switch           Eth 0/2           41               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/2
Switch           Eth 0/1           33               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/1
Switch           Eth 0/0           30               R S   Linux Uni Eth 0/0
