My littlest yorkie used to get into my baskets of test blocks, and I'd come home to them spread out all over the floor. It was like she was checking out each block. My DH said its because she wants a quilt of her own, so that's what I did with some of those test blocks. She never got into the basket again, and enjoyed her quilt immensely. We lost her in March, and buried her in her much loved little quilt. Her sister has her own quilt, too, and I know the day isn't too far that we'll do the same with her - she's 14 next month, going blind and can't hear real well. Our new pup, a Coton De Tulear, has her own quilt now, too. Sadie (the new pup) loves to be covered up at night with her quilt....the look of 'thank you' in her eyes is priceless. I think the fact that we made something makes it more special to them.

How adorable, your kitty reminds me of my TJ, who is also black and who also likes to lay down on my quilts. I think it's partly being close to you and partly having a comfortable place to take a nap.

I think it is their King and Queen Complex, you've rolled out the red carpet just for them, and they just step on and plant themselves!

I say it is your scent on the item. My cats do that too.

lol...they are so funny like that. My cats will lay on my potholders even if I leave them out. They must think we make them all for them.

I just think they want to try the "cuddliness" of the new quilt
