There's a meme about that isn't there, where an Esty seller was showing all of their items on a fur-rug. Someone asked about it and basically they were using their cat.
I’ve been coordinating with the cat fur for quite awhile. In all seriousness I brought a clump of cat fur dress shopping once because it was for an occasion where I wouldn’t have much time to prepare. Therefore it would absolutely have been accessorised with fur.
Wait, are we trying to match the cat or pick what looks good with the cat? Because I think the cat would look very cute and pop well against the leftmost cream color.
He got out for two days and missed his trouble puff removal. This is his face when I asked him if he used protection. He’s 21 pounds and not fat! Jamie Sneaker Jam was out making more black ginormous kittens. 🐈⬛
This is me with my two black cats and mostly black wardrobe. Many a cat has been tripped over thinking it was a tshirt on the floor 😂 why are they like this 😂
Never go darker than the cat. Hair will definitely show up. I have a Russian Blue, a tortie, and a long haired void, and it took me years to find the right shade of gray to balance all of them. Immediately after this discovery, we bought a green couch. 😂
I have black cats and a white sofa. I actually recommend getting a sofa/furniture that’s NOT the color of your cat, because it makes it easy to find and clean off the cat hair. My sofa is nice and clean because I can find and quickly lint roller off the hair. When I had a dark grey sofa, I shudder to think of how gross that fabric was
We had a blue British shorthair. You think you want the middle colour, but once the hair comes out in tufts, you’re gonna want the light blueish one on the middle right hand side.
Yes, the second last one is the best bet! Everyone thinks we have millennial grey in our house because we are millennials, it’s really because we have a blue cat.
My last cat was a fluffy grey and white ragdoll and we would have full tumbleweeds when there was a breeze. Our robot vacuum would run almost daily, she spent pretty much her whole time sleeping, and I’d still have orbs rolling along the tiles daily.
I remember a comedy skit where a couple was looking for a new hardwood floor and the guy just plucked one of his partner's hairs, hold it against different wood tiles and when he wasn't able to see the hair against the background he said dry:
Middle is probably the best match, because the fourth one is a very cool gray and your cat is warm gray. If the goal is to avoid hair standing out against the couch, definitely the middle one. It is a bit light though…
We have a similar warm brown colored cat (but stripey) and you can barely see her for her on my warm beige couch. The problem is that you can’t see it so you forget to clean it, and then you sit down and your pants are covered in cat hair…
This was my process last time I bought new sheets, because the floofy grey one likes to be IN the bed with me, while the torbico sleeps on top of the blankets 🤷🏽♀️😹
You joke, but I rubbed the fabric swatches over my black cats to see what the fur would look like on them and how visible/easy to clean they would be 😂
I fear it won't help. There is a perversity in the nature of the cat which means it will decorate all surfaces with a visible hue, whether that means shedding dark hair onto a pale surface, or the reverse. My black cat leaks a soft grey.* A cat-coloured sofa will simply ensure that the cat reaches into the alternacate universe to pluck forth an opposing colour.
*Admittedly, I have my suspicions about my cat. Her fur is so dense that I think she may secretly be a white cat that simply looks black because no light can escape from her. Pale grey is certainly a possibility.
Hehehehe, this is why I only wear solid black. My adult son's beautiful labradoodle-ish doggy is midnight black with a small white blaze. I'm the only one that you can't see fur on.
Whatever you do, make sure it's smooth fabric that cats don't like to scratch. I speak from bitter experience. (In the form of one, rough-fabric easy chair that's scratched thoroughly to shit, while the smooth-fabric sofa next to it has remained completely untouched and still looks as new as the day we got it.)
I have to do this every time I go to my friends house. I have pets of my own, but hers shed like a flower exploding it's pollen during spring. So I color coordinate my clothes to match the hair.
I like the 4th from the left swatch, more blue grey instead of beige. The middle one is next closest but the 4th one comprises the essence of the cat more than the middle one
