Best Answer

Cats sit on their legs when they sleep, but they are not really sleeping. I guess they just don't want to lie down, but want to rest their eyes. Cats sleep 13-16 hours a day, but when they are twitching and mewing in their sleep, that is when they are really getting good rest. Growing cats need a lot of rest, to play, eat, sleep, use the litterbox and all the cat things kittens like to do.
