That's funny because according to other experts you should sleep with your door closed in case a fire breaks out: Keeping the door closed can help keep (or at least delay) death from smoke inhalation.

Pff, imagine living a life where you try to delay your death.

Combined with a working smoke detector outside the bedroom this will save your life. Twice in my career I've gone into a house filled with smoke and had to wake people up to inform them their house is on fire.

Keep it half open - best of both worlds

but what if I yearn for death

Smoke inhalation that doesn't quite kill you is one of the worst things you could experience, so maybe yearn for death a different way.

Then the Open Door Policy may be right for your cat and you in the event of a house fire.
