omgggggggg i went thru the same thing i made a quilt for a girl and she gave it to her dogs to sleep on ((( they are her babies )) i just made the comment that i gave it to her not the dogs and said had i known it was for the dogs i would of made it out of prints of cats so they could enjoy it more !! she said well they are my babies and they love it this was after she ranted and raved how beautiful it was and loved the present that is the last time i make anything for her in your case i would of said i made that for you to put on your bed to keep you warm at night and to cuddle with the cats and then just dropped the subject but i am known to let my mouth override my thoughts !!!!
so sorry some people appreciate things in differant ways
