If you don't need the quilt to be any bigger, I say leave it as it is. Quilt it (or tie it) and bind it.
Perhaps you have hit a mental block on how to proceed because your inner artist is telling you it's done.

Well, I'm going to go out in left field. What about doing a B/W (or shades of grey) pieced or PP border in the shape of cats? Just a row of cats in various shades of grey to frame your bright colorful diamonds & show your love of kitties. You could make them pretty much any size from 3" on up. And then I'd bind it in one of those pretty colored prints you used in the center.

I agree that your other fabric would make a good border, but I would do a narrow framing border first. I like your idea of a green. I would use that or maybe the red that is in your extra fabric. Your quilt top has a very happy feel to it (think the cat thinks so too!).
