Ha! Black goes with everything, don't you know? : )
Every quilt needs to be inspected by the resident expert. I say mine have been "kitty-butt approved".
We have Dr. Girlfriend, a gray tabby, Squirrel II, a red tabby (long hair), Boris, a solid blue, and Molotov, a black and white (more a cow pattern than a tuxedo). We can't escape wearing one or more on every outfit.
I don't mind them around my fabric (which is good since we live in an open loft) but I don't leave it out unattended. Boris likes to rub his face on fabric (carpet, upholstery, bedding, etc) and then take a big bite and pull. It keeps us tidy! : )
