Not super surprised. We've had more than a few cats that could open the cabinets, even those with a magnetic catch.
But, working the lever is next level.

We had a sliding door and when it was nice out we’d leave the glass door open with the screen door closed to let some fresh air in. She’s climb up the screen towards the opening and nudge her face against the edge until she got it open enough to wiggle her head in and then her body and jump through the opening. Not sure why the climbing part was necessary and that couldn’t be accomplished from ground level. Maybe because this way she could also tear up the screen in the process.
