Going down...You could figure that from the straps

the cat is going down, the protruding angle of the steps indicate a downward view by the onlooker that is if the looker is standing at the base of the staircase. u wont be able to see this projected angle of the steps if u re standing at the top of the staircase looking downwards.

compare the 2 staircases, u will see the same slightly projected angles of the steps before the risers
in the 3rd picture the projected angles are marked as 22

Look at all the perspectives thoroughly before rushing to answer.

Clearly I see the ambiguity: If one looks from the bottom of a stairway, the steps at the foreground will appear wider than the steps further ahead (what is called parallax) - and this is the exact same parallax effect one gets when viewing the stairway from the top, down.

Our vision always perceives foreground objects larger and wider than objects further away from our eyes due to parallax.

Meanwhile the adjacent walls will appear similar too, either direction.

The answer therefore is INDETERMINATE, with the given perspective the picture portrays.

Turn your phone up-side-down and you'll be more convinced that the PUSSY is heading South-South......I wonder if na only the cat waka go down so
Re: Is This Cat Going Up Or Down? by Nobody: 3:07am On Apr 09, 2015
I feel its climbing up considering the structure behind the cat looks like a down floor passage that opened to the staircase,again the cat's raised leg supports my choice.A cat can't climb downwards raising it's front leg that way.

Nice optical illusion

All you need is to study a cat



a cat's tail is always in the air when climbing down any stairs and straight or low when moving up. That's all!!

All depends on your reference frame..


looking at it very well, the cat is really going up.

this is what the man Albert Einstein called 'Relativity' in physics

You got it wrong.
The cat is actually going down.

Look at the stairs, the design shows that the cat is facing downstairs.

Thank me later...

Its comin down.look at how d stairs is designed,typical nigerian ones
u r right, if u look @ the steps carefully u will observe hw its built n u will understand its coming down. The good thing is, everybody has his or her perception so it depends on personal view. Some can tell u the cat is flying.

Re: Is This Cat Going Up Or Down? by platodeen(m): 3:57am On Apr 09, 2015
Wen a cat wants 2 climb, d tail goes down 2 enhance movement. But going down, d tail goes up 2 control movement

The cat is going don based on the design of the stairwell. The edges on each stairwell are usually designed smooth on top but from the angle this picture was taken, the edges have the little cut out shapes which indicates it is the side of the stairwell. So the picture was taken from the front part of the stairwell which indicates the cat was coming down towards the camera
