I think that what you suggest would be a natural translation of both the Esperanto and the (indirectly linked) German. (Literally they say, "The cat is lying on the table.")

Changed. It would be good if someone could mark it as OK now, @CK, @sundown.

@Pfirsichbaeumchen

Can you also say "Die Katze sitzt auf dem Tisch.", depending on the cat's pose, or should it always be "liegt" even if the cat is literally sitting?

If the cat is sitting, you would indeed say, „Die Katze sitzt auf dem Tisch.“ I’m going to add that as a possible translation. Thanks for asking about it!
