The cat thinks that she sat on the chest, but it is not.
I have video with this bug.

I don't have any chest nearby, but I can confirm this issue in 1.14.4-Pre 5. The cat will be come "stuck" on a particular block. Moving out of range of the cat will not cause teleportation to the player. Pushing the cat out of the stuck block (as shown in the clip) will result in the cat moving back to the stuck block. Toggling the sit / follow on the cat or feeding will not unstick it.
Occasionally (like for five minutes every two hours of play time) the cat will follow as normal. After this time, it will return back to the exact same stuck block.
Yep this is happening to me in my survival world it has a wierd obsession with sitting on chests unless you can get it to move and manually sit it down where you want but as soon as you stand it back up it goes bock to the same chest
Please check if that's still an issue in the latest 1.16 development snapshot. Currently that is 20w06a.
I've found this bug in release versions, and as of 21w11a, cats can still get stuck pathfinding toward a bed they cannot reach. (such as: a village house with the door shut)
I can reproduce it, this particular black cat runs all the way back to the glass house when manually teleported (see 4 new screenshots), and just stands by the wall, (yes the cat is mine, I checked, (ordering it to sit, then stand, made it follow me again)).
Note: only occasionally does a cat become so fixated on a bed that it forgets to teleport, (I had a whole group of cats here for a fair few minutes and only one bugged out).
Update: somehow I got them all stuck on the roof (picture 5), the roof is slabs and the cats are not teleporting.
I saw it too at 1.14.3, Win 7, Java 8 Update 211
