creating pet friendly interiors
2. Pet-Friendly Flooring:
Considering hardwood flooring for your pet-friendly home? It's a stylish choice that's easy to clean, but keep in mind it can be susceptible to scratching from your pet's claws. However, there are ways to mitigate this issue, such as choosing scratch-resistant hardwood or adding rugs in high-traffic areas. Unlike carpet, hardwood floors don't trap pet hair or hold onto odors, making them a cleaner option for pet owners. So while maintenance is required to keep them looking their best, the benefits far outweigh the cons when it comes to both style and cleanliness.
6. Safe and Secure Design
Ensure that your home is safe and secure for your pets by eliminating potential hazards and creating designated areas where they can roam freely. Install recessed and integrated gates or pet gates to restrict access to certain areas of the house, such as staircases or rooms with delicate furnishings. Be mindful of exposed cords, toxic plants, and other dangers that could pose a risk to your pets' health and safety.
