lazy as a dormouse/sloth

Oppure "sloth"- bradipo.

lazy as lazy cats are
be' non sono madrelingua inglese quindi non improvviso ma mi sono incuriosita e ho un po' cercato in rete
da amante dei gatti questo mi paiceva molto
http://it.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=2007100322574...
ma ce ne sono anche molti altri :)
As lazy as a donkey
http://irish.spike-jamie.com/sayings.html
As lazy as a cuckoo. (Wont even bring up their own kids).
http://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/Phrases-and-Sayings/Question4...
lazy as a hound dog in the sun
http://books.google.it/books?id=ioHbdtjIKJgC&pg=PA213&lpg=PA...
lazy as a well-fed pythons, stretching out in the sun.
http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/node/3107718
As lazy as Ludlam's dug, iha! leaned his head against a wall to bark
http://books.google.it/books?id=IbAQSTyJaoAC&pg=PA154&lpg=PA...
(il cane di Ludlam, una vecchia strega va fortissimo ma non so quanto sia realmente comprensibile per un bambino. Ludlam era una strega mi sembra e il suo cane pigrissimo. C'è anche
As lazy as Ludlum's dog, as laid him down to bark.)

The lazy cat
