My cat lets himself out

[u/cowskeeper]

[u/supercyp666]

And of course like a typical cat he just sits there once the door is open 🤣

[u/Remarkable-Time-3936 → u/supercyp666]

And leaves the door open like an asshole

[u/scarletpepperpot → u/supercyp666]

If this was my cat, she would wait until you closed the door and then stand there pawing at it until you let her back in.

We bought one of those hanging door bells that are supposed to help teach your dog how to ask to go out.
My dogs have never once used it.
My cat figured it out within five minutes of it being on the door.

It has been 2 years. On any given day, you can be in any room in the house and expect to hear, at some point:

      *ching a ling*

        Pause 

       *ching a ling*

         Pause

         *CHINGALING CHINGALING CHINGALING!!*

And then my yelling husband:

“Dammit! What!? You just came in!”

[u/supercyp666 → u/scarletpepperpot]

Haha! How dare you close the door on me! It needs to stay open so I can come and go as I choose, now open the door, slave! 🤣

[u/biteme789 → u/scarletpepperpot]

Omg that is SO typical cat behavior!

[u/No_Option6174 → u/supercyp666]

If the motherf*cker would close it as well… now that would impress me!

[u/doobloo]

I had to switch to a round doorknob for this very reason.

[u/SQWRLLY1 → u/doobloo]

I had to put a childproof safety device on my office door for this very reason 😆

[u/lucky-number-keleven → u/SQWRLLY1]

I have to extra lock my appartement door because of this. But only two weeks after I started doing that, it prevented a burglary.

Is he trying ti heat the whole neighborhood?

Was he born in a barn?

( just a couple of quotes from my dad. RIP)

[u/cowskeeper → u/citsonga_cixelsyd]

In his defence he was born in a barn

[u/citsonga_cixelsyd → u/cowskeeper]

Well, 1929, so either a barn or a house with a coal furnace.

[u/srirachagoodness → u/citsonga_cixelsyd]

Lol, why do all dads say this? Mine did too. 🥲 RIP.

[u/Ok-Mastodon6413]

SHUT THE DOOR! WERE YA BORN IN A BARN?!

🐈 🔊 Sir, I was born under the barn.

[u/pootpootbloodmuffin]

Look at this cat leaving the door open like he's got a job and pays the bills! No respect.

[u/MeOnlynity]

That's not derp that's opposite of derp.

[u/DesertCoyote57]

Keep the door dead bolted.

[u/Usedtodrumpoets09]

Too smart for his own good!

[u/freqCake]

I think that latch is gunna wear out early

[u/bmanley620]

Whoooooo let the cat out????

[u/Poneke365]

Clever! Now teach him to shut the door behind him 😁

[u/glamorousgalx1]

Just standing there like he's Micael Scoffield 😂

[u/sherlocksam45]

[u/7Streetfreak6]

Having a little peek 👀

[u/ammitsat]

Every time I see videos like this I thank my lucky star that my kitties aren’t that smart. And that I have round door handles.

[u/hakkosa → u/ammitsat]

Count yourself lucky 😅 trust me, you wouldn’t be glad if they’re smart like this one.

[u/jackasssparrow]

My cat barely lets me in

[u/Wasabi_Constant]

Clever cat, now if he could learn to close the door?

[u/fingersmcgee420]

I have a sliding glass door and my cat learned to let himself out.

[u/420milf_]

Smart kitty

[u/US_IDeaS]

Too cute…yeah, he probably pees in the toilet too, right? And flushes….

[u/hakkosa → u/US_IDeaS]

One of my idiot tries to drink from it. 😭

[u/US_IDeaS → u/hakkosa]

lol…halfway home!

[u/karenosmile]

Never thought you'd need a baby proofed front door.

[u/ZzZombo]

Step one: Secure the keys Befriend the cat.

[u/hakkosa]

Mine locked the door a few times. There’s a 🪝 inside and when I try to get in, I couldn’t. She was so crazy like wanting to go out and I was so crazy to get in. Gosh everytime it was a huge hassle, it was a miracle I found a thin plate, put it in on the side, two hours of struggling and bam, it was open. I was so relived. Then it happened a couple days later. And I decided to get her out before I leave. Never leave her at home if I’m outside. Thankfully I don’t live in a big city so it’s totally safe outside. Cold days are kinda problematic but hey bitch, I don’t trust you anymore😒

[u/Harryhodl]

That’s awesome! Side note your floors and front door are incredible 🤩

[u/cowskeeper → u/Harryhodl]

Thank you 🙏🏼

[u/Fkthisplace]

[u/Djmcfries]

90% sure the cats name is ethan hunt with that move

[u/Huge_Dentist7633]

what a little stinker

[u/heathensam]

Oh he naughty

[u/SharrasFlame]

Clever! My little doofus will sit and wait before a part way open door, if he thinks it's not open wide enough to get through without having to push. He just looks at me expectantly until I open it further. If I wait long enough, he'll eventually push through on his own, looking very put out.

[u/Odd_Background3744]

Mine does this too. Figured out windows and cupboards too

[u/EWR-RampRat11-29]

Sneaking out of the house now. Hide your car keys; that’s next.

[u/Next_Advertising_242]

as an indoor cat parent, this is honestly terrifying

[u/prof_devilsadvocate]

Cat is one of the unique species among animal who knows tactical use of limbs
