There is no Squid output on stdout. Your _Cloudwatch_ thing may be sending log data there, but that has nothing directly to do with Squid. At most Squid prints some initial messages to stderr on startup which Unix based OS typically write into a kernel log called '/var/log/messages' (but YMMV). Once the cache.log *file* is initialized critical and important notices, along with all helper stderr outputs go to that cache.log file. ***** Please note that setting cache.log to /dev/null is highly dangerous. Squid log rotation, restart etc may *replace* the filesystem special inode for /dev/null with a regular inode for a cache.log file. Squid has root privileges on startup (required for other device access and actions) which allow that inode replacement to be possible.
