Worth it, no questions about it!
That cat is not happy about being put there for the photo shoot.
It’s an orange cat. He doesn’t know how he got there, and he won’t remember where he’s been.
When a moth thinks about traveling vertically upwards, a LADDER is just the last thing he would think of!!
Source? Only thing in English I can find is META user reporting of the same AI slop. And in Dutch I only found sources that they have done a few like a year ago?
You were the only person here who double checked if this is even real, or AI slop.
I think we are going to see so much popular content not even be real. And people will defend it, thinking you are weird for wanting only real stuff, using terms as “who cares”. Its funny. :)
How many users here are bots, to begin with…
It may be time to walk outside. Cant fake real people. Yet.
What makes you think it’s AI? Nothing about the picture looks like AI to me.
I was just wondering, and would like to read more. But I don’t want to support the AI and META platform
I was able to find several articles in English by searching “Amsterdam cat staircase” on DuckDuckGo.
Those are some expensive ass ladders
They’ve a lot of canals, the ladders are custom, they’ll need to be coated to stop them from corroding, and that’ll be the installed price, so that’s a small team driving round, barriering off bits of the canal while the work is done
If anything, seems cheap for a council job. My town would probably spend ten times that on the desk study to decide where they’ll go and to get the paperwork together.
And they’ll probably be designed to be strong enough for a human to use, because that’s good safety design.
I’ll throw some 2x4s down anchored with sand bags for 50k
and replace them every year when they rot out, or do the aluminium ones that will outlast their own aesthetic appeal but remain functional for a decade.
It’s called job security
I thought it was for drunk British tourists to climb out after they pass out while peeing in the canal.
That’s indeed their main function
Thats probably why they are so overbuilt.
Those stairs seem helpful for many living beings. I wonder if they’re still useful for smaller animals like mice and rats. I’d guess some coarse rope around some of the poles could already be helpful (and cheap) too.

Not that I’m all for saving cats. But in that picture couldn’t the cat just climb the wooden pole?
Aww, clumsy kitties.
