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
Folded is the wrong word. Not load bearing signs be better.
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.
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
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.
These exchanges are why I come to the internet.
What about a "sploot"?
No legs folded, or just front legs folded while laying on belly
