I am a little familiar with cat behavior, but not so with common American interior design I have the hunch that this door is a somewhat typical wardrobe door?
When we’d go out of the house, I would put our Labrador in the den to keep him out of trouble. We’d return home to find him roaming the house. I kept thinking that I had forgotten to close the den door. After the third time I set-up the video camera. Turns out he had taught himself to reach up and turn the door knob with his mouth and pull the door open. That was one smart dog.
I heard a guy say his cat was accidentally walled up in his apartment after a plumber took off an access plate to do some repairs. Once he removed the plate, the cat’s first stop was the litter box.
So far the best I’ve done is teach one cat to play “tag” as I walk around the house running up the Fitbit. Each trip around “it” tags the other—she would explode out from a hiding place on her turn, but not on mine.

That was as bad as being dropped off at a kennel while you leave on a trip.

You can’t expect a cat to operate complicated machinery.

If my cat gets shut in a closet ,he just takes a nap until someone wonders where he is.

Who hasn’t had a cat sneak into a closet or a bedroom only to have the door closed on it, then later had to follow the meows to find it.

My friends and I didn’t use the phrase,( in the ’50’s) but I believe I remember it from “The Little Rascals”.

Been there, done that! I can’t open the closet door without a cat running in.

I just figured out why I don’t understand this comic half the time. It is because I don’t have a cat!

He probably didn’t hear you since he is a cat and probably fell asleep in the closet.
