A cat is being hailed as “clever” on Instagram after a video of the kitty foiling its human’s plans was shared on the social networking platform. The video shows how the cat opens a cabinet door that its pet parent locked using ladles.

The video opens to show a cabinet with two ladles placed on its handles, assumingly to make sure that the cat standing in front of it is unable to open it. At first, the kitty keeps pawing at the ladles, but it seems like the cat will not succeed in opening it. However, the cat refuses to give up and finally manages to open the door with perfection.

And, hide the key up on the ceiling! Lol,” joked another. “The fact the cat saw you and did it anyway. Somebody doesn't have any respect for you.
