A Guide on Pet-Friendly Interior Decorating

For those homes with a pet like a cat or a dog, not every interior decorating idea is going to work. This is similar to those households with kids: You need to think about your pets when you decorate your home. Fortunately, these days those in search of pet-friendly dcor have plenty of options.

Pet-Friendly Flooring Ideas
With pets come household problems such as mud tracks and bathroom accidents, no matter how well-trained your animal might be. Thats why its always a good idea to go with a low-maintenance flooring option in your home.

Carpet is probably the worst flooring options for households with pets. Animal hair and dander tend to stay in the carpet for a long time, as they are very difficult to remove. Youll also have a harder time removing mud, urine, and other pet stains from the carpets than you would with other flooring options.

For households with pets, the best flooring options are hardwood floors, laminate flooring, and ceramic tile. Not only are these types of floors easy to clean, but they can endure more traffic from your pets.

Just be sure that any hardwood floors are finished to protect them from your pets nails. Otherwise, just be sure to trim those nails on a regular basis. You might also want to add some area rugs to these types of floors that can be easily cleaned in the washer and dryer.

Pet-Friendly Home Fabrics
Another huge dcor consideration for homes with pets is what type of fabric to use. This is particularly important if your pet likes to get on the furniture, whether its a dog or a cat, or even another type of pet such as a bird or a lizard.

If pet hair is going to be a constant issue, you want to make sure you choose a fabric thats easy to clean. If pet hair tends to be a problem for you, then select fabrics that are close to the color of your pet. This way, you can avoid having to clean the couches every day. A white or tan couch may not be such a good idea for those homes with a black-haired dog or cat.

You also want to consider how easy the fabric will be to clean. Microfibers tend to be much easier to clean than other fabrics. Woven fabrics that have texture will actually trap pet hair and can also be harder to remove stains from.

If you decide to get new furniture, you might also consider putting a stain guard on your furniture. Then stains can easily be lifted off by following the manufacturers directions.

If you have a pet, that pet is going to influence everything about the dcor in your home in one way or another. For instance, any flower arrangements you put in your home, like on aoak coffee table orwood end table, need to be placed in an area where your pet cant get into them. Thus when it comes to pet-friendly decorating, be sure to not only pay attention to the flooring and fabrics but to the smaller details, like flowers and candle placement.
