Question:

Drawer blocking Bathroom Door, cat locked inside?

My cat somehow got shut into my bathroom on accident and while inside she opened a drawer in front of the doori can only open the door about half an inch and the only thing I have found long enough to fit through the door is a blind turner which bends if you apply pressureThe hinges are also on the inside of the doorThe cat is meowing constantly, how do i get the drawer shut or the door open? This is crazy!

Answer:

Use a long kitchen knife (wrap it in aluminum foil to protect kitty from the blade) or metal skewer to close the drawerOr, if the opening is large enough, you could use a broomstickA sturdy plastic coat hanger may work as wellYour best bet will be to close the drawer somehowIf all else fails, try going in through the window (if you have one and it's unlocked)It could be worseOne of mine somehow got trapped between the bathroom cabinet and the floor onceI eventually had to cut a hole in the bottom of the cabinet to get her outLOLI know it's frustratingDo you have a fireplace? If so, maybe a fireplace poker will workOr, perhaps an extra long screwdriverA tent pole, maybe?
