Cat is going down the stairs.  To me, it appears the pic was taken from the bottom of the stairs, aiming up at the cat coming down.

No stairs just walking forward...

That is my first impression.

The horizontal cement lines lining up on the wall designs appear at equal height throughout; and the kitty's body is not slanted either up or down as s/he would be in going up or down a stairway.  That's why I thought no stairs.

A definite down for me.

Down. That's what a cat looks like trotting down the stairs.

Either way, but originally I thought it looked like it was coming down.

Also, if the picture were taken pointing downward and if the cat were travelling upwards, the steps would not be very safe. People would trip over a concrete edge on each step.

Coming down to the bottom of the staircase. Each step has a nosing which sits above each riser. To me there is no optical illusion, especially if you know how stairs are constructed.

Coming down the stairs.  To me it looks like the shadow cast by the light behind it would be in the right place for a cat padding down the stairs not coming up from a lit basement.

Me too. That is all I see...missing the illusion.

I don't see stairs at all. Just the cat walking along a surface that has divider borards (or something).
