We study the statistics of column-convex lattice animals resulting from the stacking of squares on a single or double staircase. We obtain exact expressions for the number of animals with a given length and area, their mean length and their mean height. These objects are closely related to Fibonacci numbers. On a single staircase, the total number of animals with area k is given by the Fibonacci number F_k.
