Yes, You Can Have Pets and Keep Your Home Clean
Life doesn’t get much better than being greeted at the door by a four-legged friend who’s always delighted to see you. But if your home is going to the dogs (and cats) in the form of clawed-up upholstery and dander-masked furnishings, life with Fido or Fluffy can seem less than ideal. There’s no need to live a fur-covered life. The latest home decor options can provide you with (nearly) dander-free digs without endless cleaning and vacuuming.
Upholstered Furnishings
Despite your best efforts, sofas and couches tend to get the most wear and tear, especially with the help of our feline and canine counterparts. Couch corners and sofa cushions often fall victim to a cat’s claws, while fabrics capture hair and dander from our sweet little pets. Choose your living room furnishings wisely. Select microfiber or heavy-duty leather sofas that outlast nails and don’t trap dust, dirt and fur. If you have an existing sofa you’d like to hold on to, opt for a chic couch cover, like a waterproof couch cover from Surefit (simply remove it when you’re expecting guests).
