I saw it happen. Cats blow my mind.

In a thread (I think in Classics) a neighbour complained about their cat opening their door!

One of mine is skilled at doors.
Change the handle to a twisty knob Smile

Clever things!
Love my cat. She's plump and fluffy, always by my side and her odd little ways make me smile.

Our cats can open any type of door handle by standing there and shouting till a stupid human does it for them.

Mine can too. She’ll open the food cupboards to help herself as well as opening drawers for the dog to steal food. I have to put child locks on everything

Ours is much more polite and rings the door bell.

Mine shoulder barges them open like in a 1980s cop drama

We used have to tie two close handles together so one of ours couldn't open them.
Grin at ringing the doorbell.

Mine used to be able to manage a handle you press down but she seems to have forgotten how to do it and just yows

As a child a friend had a cat who used to swing into the room at force flying off the handle-it was very dramatic

1970s house with pull down handle and door that opened inwards. Cat jumped up with 2 paws to pull the handle down and swung into the room with the door jumping off mid air.
