I would say that the latch of the lock does not go through the strike 
plate, properly. Either through the house settling or the door warping.
I have known a few doors like that where you have to positively shut the 
door until the latch engages.
The handle even though round looks like it is a mock crystal one with 
facets. The cat might get enough of a grip to give it a small rotational 
moment while it is pulling towards itself.
To me the interesting thing is that it did not go into the room immediately.
