Thanks

It means when a cat is lying perched on it's four paws deep in thought,
maybe communing with the mothership.  See an example of Kitty FC meatloafing

It refers to a cat sitting with its paws tucked in and its tail wrapped
around its body so it is shaped roughly like a meatloaf. Well, OK, a
meatloaf with a head.

I like watching Betty position itself into a meatloaf.  The way she
folds each paw and hunkers down looks very polished, like a concert
pianist taking a seat.

That's great! I really chuckled over that one. And I guess, instead of
piano tinkling, she issues musical little purrs.

You like similes!  I forgot to mention that the seat is one
upholstered in rich Corinthian leather. ;)

Yes, it's very important to get that phrase in at least one post
per day. :)

The cat rests with all paws tucked under making a loaf-like obstacle
(sometimes to be tripped over).  I was told that TuTu looks like a
footstool because she is so big.  MLB

Well in that case Otis looks like a nut roast - no meatloaf in our
house.  As DH says though, his nuts were roasted a long time ago - poor
Otis, never been the same since, perhaps that's why he prefers DH
giving him a belly massage rather than me,  tart!
