Lots of pets are clever enough to open doors. It takes a really smart pet to close the door after themselves.
Looking at things to tell us they want them is clever enough. My old guinea pig does that for his water dish. When he wants it changed he looks at it and then looks at me. I change it right away. Apparently I am easy to train.

My favourite is my friend's Iguana who pulls on my pant leg when she wants me to get her fresh water. She is so cute about it. When she wants vegetables she walks right up to the frig. Our pets are definitely smarter than we realize.

My daughters tuxedo cat Eddie hates closed doors of any kind,she put hair ties around the pantry door handles took him awhile put he worked out how to get the ties off,never underestimate a determined pet.

Eddie sounds pretty clever. Cats can be good with doors. He wanted the door open so he found a way to do it.
It is more than just training. Some animals are smart. Parrots are very smart.
Even goldfish can  be clever.
