He just lacks thumbs to hang on to them and turn them. For a long time he tried to get into the bathroom (to comply with the Cat Rule that no human may occupy a bathroom unless accompanied by at least one cat) by sticking his paw under the door and pulling, while howling mournfully. But recently I noticed that while I was occupying a bathroom (without a cat), the doorknob would rattle - he was working on opening the door by turning the knob. I don't know how he figured that out, unless it was by watching me.

put the toilet roll on over the top
leave curtain pulls hanging down
leave my razor out
put tomatoes on the kitchen counter
leave a glass of water on the table
walk around barefoot
find a pen that was left out...
