Correct answer is sitting.

Three scenarios:

No legs folded - standing

Rear legs folded - sitting

All legs folded - laying down

False. It could be laying down on the sofa with front legs not folded, it wouldn't count as sitting

Objection.

It would just be SITTING on said sofa

You are not laying on the sofa unless you are vertical. If you are ON the sofa in the chair position thats sitting too.

As fine_sandy_bottom mention

Folded is the wrong word. Not load bearing signs be better.

Which means that a cat "loafing" is still standing up instead of laying down

The opposite - while "'loafing" as you refer to this posture, a cat is not puting any load on any of its limbs ergo its laying down

Emm no? It's literally standing on all of his legs, just hiding them. Almost like doing a pushup and being on the bottom. It's still laying / sitting, yet it puts the load on the legs.

What about a "sploot"?

No legs folded, or just front legs folded while laying on belly

double negative. comes from uneducated people at america and idk maybe other english spoken countries. Used heavily on mice and men and while it isn't high english it is completly valid to use double negatives to give a country side effect.

Pretty certain commenter is using double negative intentionally.
