No door is dog. But there is the possibility that a door can be a cat or a cat can be a door because it is not expressly said that it cannot be therefore it can be. It is an either-or case. Where we have to check the possibility. And the cat is the bigger circle. So, there is a possibility for a door to be a cat and a cat to be a door.

Here, in the explanation part we see 2 type of Venn diagrams, in the second one we find that some door can also be cat (because its not mentioned that door can't be cat) , so we also have to consider that situation, and hence 1 and 2 are not true, and only 3 is true.
