I'm doing a science fair project with this topic. I believe the colors vary due to the color of the cat. A black cat would be attracted to white because its a contrast to it's own color of fur. A white cat will be attracted black material for the same reason. As for texture, most cats prefer rough material. Don't forget they were once a wild species and slept in the outdoors. Its in their blood. Hope this helped in a small way!

Black is not actually a color, but rather the relative absence of any light. So any creature can see black; in fact, that's generally all that it sees when its eyes are closed.

Cats can see different ranges of light than we can, and their eyes are much more sensitive than ours, so they can see things where we would see only black. But if it gets dark enough, cats will see the same black we do.
