Home furnishing when you have a pet

Pets are an inexhaustible source of unconditional love.

Only those who haven’t experienced the intensity of a furry attachment understand how wonderful and beneficial it can be, even if it does occasionally come with gnawed or destroyed furniture, strewn food grains, tracks, hair, and other messes. Although these inconveniences are a minor price to pay for the benefits you obtain, living with a pet will become much more comfortable if a few factors and furnishing solutions are considered.

Small living Rooms, Furnishing and Furniture Arrangement Ideas, #3 (video)

A dedicated area.

From many perspectives, it is probably the finest choice, because it can be used when bringing a pet into an already furnished and arranged apartment or house, as well as when furnishing takes into account the demands of the animal. The dedicated space varies depending on the situation. A cat will be pleased with a window seat to watch the birds and potentially a stand on the radiator during the cold season, while a puppy will be content with a bed in a more hidden spot to sit in when there are guests or just when it needs a safe location.

Pet-specific locations are excellent choices. The furry one will rapidly understand what “his place” is, lowering the chances of him scratching or destroying the furniture or generating unpleasant events.

A nice idea is to create this space as similar to the decor in the house as possible, for two reasons: it will integrate into the general atmosphere, and the four-legged buddy will accept it as his particular niche more easily.

Friendly floors.

Even if it means foregoing real wood flooring, you can have the most beautiful floors in the world. There are options that are very easy to maintain, extremely durable, and will not deteriorate if they need to be cleaned frequently, such as if you have a naughty puppy who enjoys puddles and muddy places, or a feline with a personality who can’t resist the urge to sharpen its claws on the beautiful parquet in the living room. Alternatives include tiles, laminate flooring, high-quality linoleum, and indoor concrete (which is wonderful and very trendy).

These flooring options make home upkeep a breeze; additionally, they are the ideal choice that eliminates the need for huge carpets. While carpet can collect germs, stains readily, and is a source of unpleasant aromas if not frequently cleaned, lack of carpet or small carpets are more comfortable and easy-to-clean alternatives.

The perfect furniture.

Pet owners may try to impose regulations such as “the puppy is not allowed on the couch” or “the cat will never enter the kitchen.” These stringent standards would be utterly forgotten in no time. The puppy will sit on the couch, while the cat will climb onto the kitchen counter. The best thing is that breaking these rules will not worry anyone, even though the furies will have access to every room in the house. That’s excellent since your house is also their house. You do, however, have simple remedies at your disposal. Choose a sofa with thick fabric in dark colors, which is ideal for a modern home. Leather or fake leather are also excellent options.

They are smooth, and animal hair may be easily and swiftly removed. Avoid using velvet, velour, and other fragile fabrics. A thick, washable cover is also recommended.

Puppies reproduce, and cats have an unbreakable preoccupation with the sharpness of their claws. Wood is the first material to fall victim to them, thus it must endure the “attacks.” Choose furniture with robust, laminate, or metal finishes that will preserve their appearance and endure any aggression.

  A comfortable place.

Pets have a sense of ownership as well, especially when it comes to their favorite location to sleep. It is worthwhile investing in a special bed for them. You could just as easily make it out of old blankets or an old Canada Goose jacket. The solution is to outfit them in removable coverings made of soft fabrics so that they may be readily cleaned from time to time. The cozy spot should be where the animal, puppy or cat feels most at ease. He’ll own it, and once he realizes it’s “his,” he’ll cease lying in bed with you.

A dedicated comfy space is a terrific approach to make your animal buddies feel protected and to assist you in establishing guidelines. Consider options that are integrated into the house design, such as an ottoman or a sleeping area hidden in the bookshelves – a particularly appealing alternative for cats.
