Well, I am guessing that they sleep curled up because it keeps them warm. Also, it may be very comfortable sleeping like that. Imagine cats sleeping all spread apart! Not very comforting to me!

How much time do cats sleep?
It varies greatly with the cat's age. Kittens will sleep 17-20 hours a day. As they age, cats will sleep less, to about 12 to 13 hours a day, but they will also spend a lot of time in a state of lowered awareness that is not exactly sleep and not exactly awake, and that substitutes for some sleeping time. As a cat gets very old, often its time asleep will increase again, to as much as 18 hours a day; but that may be cause for concern as it indicates that the cat's metabolism may be failing.
