Unhappy cat fur sticking to batik

I made my son & DIL a beautiful Derrick Lockwood quilt for their wedding. It is all batiks, mostly black, with jewel tones. They love it! Her cat loves it -- yuck! It's a long-haired white cat! I see my first mistake - don't do dark colors where there is a white cat.
My question is: Has anyone had success in keeping cat fur from sticking to batik fabric? They are willing to hang the quilt, but if cat fur is in the air, it may still attach itself. They don't want to just pack it away.
Please help if you have any suggestions. This quilt took me 800 hours to piece and quilt this 6,500 piece beauty. I want them to be able to use it.
Yes, the back is also batik - black!
