How to equip an interior with pets?

Practical wall and floor finishes

Walls and floors are most often affected by the activity of pets, therefore, the choice of materials for finishing these surfaces you need to be especially careful... You need to choose them in such a way that the pet is comfortable and cleaning the house does not turn into hard labor.

Floor ceramic tiles or porcelain stoneware is always a win-win... Porcelain stoneware is easy to clean and also looks quite interesting.

If there is no desire to lay out the entire apartment with tiles, then you can take laminate or quartz vinyl... The latter, not only looks modern, but also convenient in terms of cleaning.

And here the most practical solution for walls – decorative plaster or paintable walls. As a rule, animals do not show interest in such coatings, which means they will last much longer than wallpaper, for example.

Door protection

Cats just hate closed doors, and constantly scratch them, trying to open them. And dogs, too, often "sin" with this. Therefore, in order to protect the door from scratches, you can make a special hole for the animal in it.

Of course, this option is only suitable for small pets, but for a large dog you will have to choose another solution. For example, purchase special stoppers - mechanical stops that keep the door open.

If you plan to replace the door with a new one, then it is best to choose a laminated or plastic door. Such models are much more reliable to cope with claws and teeth than wooden ones.

Vandal-proof upholstered furniture

When adjusting your interior to your pet, you need to understand that its fur will be everywhere, including the most beloved sofa. To keep your interior intact, buy a special case... This accessory will help protect your furniture from a variety of stains, wool or puffs.

Another option is purchase special furniture with anti-vandal coating... The upholstery of such furniture is made of dense fabrics, for example, flock or chenille, which have increased wear resistance and do not require complex maintenance.

Organization of a place for a pet

A four-legged friend must have his place. And if it is difficult to do such manipulations with a cat, since these animals sleep everywhere, then a dog, on the contrary, loves when it has its own separate space.

You can make a special couch to order or buy a ready-made one in the store.Moreover, the pet goods market is constantly expanding its assortment, and now you can choose a model that will not only suit your pet's taste, but also perfectly fit into the interior.

Consider a feeding place

When choosing a place to feed your pet, you need to consider several important points:

• the feeding area should not interfere with the passage;
• to get rid of stains and splashes, you need to lay a rubber mat under the bowls;
• the feeding area must be located at a comfortable level for the animal.

Special boxes with built-in bowls for feeding are also popular. This accessory looks very stylish and makes cleaning easy. Plus, this drawer also fits your friend's other belongings, such as clothes, toys, or leashes.

Arrangement of a zone for games

Cats are known to love jumping and climbing as high as possible. In order for them to be able to maintain their physical shape, it is necessary to provide for a special play area for them. This can be a shelving unit or a maze with shelters.

the main thingthat such a zone will distract your purr from climbing curtains, as well as other inappropriate objects.

Organization of a place for animal hygiene

This is a painful question, especially for cat owners. After all, these restless animals constantly dig into the filler, scattering it in all directions, and inevitably carry it on their paws throughout the house.

Therefore, it is best to install a cat litter box in the bathroom or in the hallway. Where no one will interfere with the cat going about his business. In addition, another novelty has appeared - a special cabinet for cat litter. Its beauty is that the tray is hidden inside the curbstone and does not irritate anyone's eyes. Cleaning this hygiene spot is also easy, just open the cabinet and replace the litter in the tray.

As you can see, if you carefully consider the needs of your four-legged friend, he will reciprocate you, and the interior will be in perfect order.
