According to that logic, this cat is standing on the sofa. I have seen my cat laying down with his front paws over the end, straight down, with his back legs folded. He isn't sitting.

    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
