Best rugs for the soft paws!
If you’re a pet lover, you would want to buy rugs which are pet-friendly and also easy to maintain. The other criteria would be the looks – you wouldn’t want to settle for something that is not stunning. Here are some tips to help you choose the best one for your pet and also meet the aesthetic standards:
Indoor and Outdoor Rugs
Indoor and outdoor rugs are the best rugs for pets. These rugs are made to withstand sun, rain, heat, and wind; they are not suitable just for outdoors but can be used inside as well. Because of the materials used in these rugs, they are scrubbable and bleachable, so you can wash out almost any stain.
Carpet tiles
They are also known as carpet squares or modular carpet. They provide a modern and stylish alternative to standard carpet rolls or rugs. Using carpet tile will not reduce the chances of damage from the pet, but it will give you the option to replace a tile or two if needed.
Small patterned Rugs
Patterned rugs are beautiful soft rugs which are handy for pet lovers. Go for small patterns as that can camouflage the dog/cat spots as compared bigger patterned or plain rugs.
Low pile Rugs
Unlike high pile rugs, that encourage your pets for digging in; low pile rugs are safer. They need not be rough and uncomfortable. Even soft and less fibrous rug will also repel those dog/ cat instinct of digging.
Seagrass Rugs
It’s an inexpensive rug which is durable, sustainable yet stylish. On the plus side, it is pet-friendly too. These natural-fiber rugs are easy to clean and maintain due to their stain-resistant fibers, as all they require is a little regular vacuuming. They are low-cost options to give your home a modern and nature-friendly look.
Wool Rugs
Wool is a great fabric for your furry fella. When it comes to maintenance, it is easy to clean and durable. However, they are costlier than other cheaper options like seagrass rugs.
Nylon Rugs
Nylon rugs though costlier than woolen rugs are preferred for pet households, as nylon is a stain resistant material which makes maintaining it easier. Even if your pet leaves a major stain, it can always be steam cleaned.
