Having a pet around can present challenges on how to incorporate design, functionality, and comfort that will keep both you and your furry friend happy. You can achieve a stylish pet-friendly interior in your River Green condo with these tips.
Selecting pet-friendly materials
When choosing furniture and other items in your home, It is wise to select materials that are durable while being aesthetically pleasing and can easily be cleaned. Common examples of such materials are leather and microfiber which can withstand any scratches or bites, ensuring that your furniture stays in great condition for a very long time.
Create pet-friendly spaces
When your pet is stressed, it is a good idea to let them have their own space. It might be a corner of your house with a bedroom or a fun play area in your living room, which will not only make them feel comfortable but also easily relieve stress for you and your pet!
Opt for washable fabrics
When your pet makes a big mess on your favorite flooring, carpet, or couch, you will need to clean and remove unwanted stains, which can easily tire you and take too much time on one thing. Go with waterproof or washable fabric slipcovers, so instead of scrubbing which takes a lot of effort and energy, just toss the dirty object in the washing machine and let it do the cleaning.
Provide plenty of toys and some treats
Catch the interest of your beloved pet by providing toys and treats, which will keep them entertained and distract them from eyeing your upholstery. However, only give treats to reward your furry friend, as it can cause tummy problems and other serious sicknesses when given too many.
Maintain Cleanliness and Hygiene
Wash your pet’s feeding bowls regularly and ensure that they have access to safe drinking water. Always clean after your pet when they make a huge mess on your sofa or flooring, and remove any unwanted stains that were left behind. Try to make it a habit to groom your pet and vacuum daily to keep your condo looking great!
