The Bug:
The hitboxes of cats are not adjusted when they lay on beds.
Steps to Reproduce:
Summon a cat, tame it, and place down a bed.
Enable entity hitboxes by pressing "F3 + B" and set the time to "midnight".
Sleep in the bed so that the cat lays down with you.
Observe the hitbox of the cat as it is laying down.
Observed Behavior:
The hitboxes of cats are not made shorter when they lay on beds despite their model being shorter.
Expected Behavior:
The hitboxes of cats that are laying on beds would be slightly smaller than the hitboxes of regular cats, as their models have been made shorter.
