Agreed, since cats have trouble writing, what with the lack of opposable thumbs.

Are they opposable? You're screwed. That's what was stopping them from taking over the world. I'm certain of it.

Mine know how to open the sliding closet doors by wriggling their heads in. They know how to turn a knob and are starting to figure out cabinets. If they had thumbs too, I can only imagine what they'd be doing.

Omg the door knob lol. My bathroom is a sliding door. My cats mission is to open it everytime im in there 😂 one time he locked himself in a room by pushing the door closed..... but we didnt know till we were home from work. Who knows how long he was in there for lol. I keep a big doorstop on it now.

My two boys also locked themselves in a room by play fighting behind the door. We found out when we got home from work too.

Haha same. I mean i think most cats know to just push an already open door to make a bigger holr to get through.. but my girl from the streetz just.. doesnt get it 😂 she just sits there at the door waiting and scratching the floor till its open. My other cat is like what are you doing... and just waltzes in.
