25 Easy Peasy Ways to Make Your Home More Pet-Friendly
There’s a number of things to consider when you’re buying a pet like, how often does it need to be cleaned or exercised or fed? What will you do if you decide to go on holidays? And will you end up doing all the work when it comes to walkies and cleaning out the hutch? (Answer: yes). On top of all that is the added conundrum of how your new pet might actually impact your living quarters. With these 25 easy steps we’ll help get your space more pet-friendly and make sharing your home a stress-free experience.
1. Pick Materials You Can Trust
The only sofa your pet really has his eye on is yours, so ensure that your furniture is up to the job of accommodating them. Leather is a good choice, as long as you keep claws trimmed to prevent scratching.
2. Provide a Window View
Most animals seriously appreciate the entertainment value of a large window overlooking a garden or street. Just make sure you’re able to close off the view if your pooch can’t stop barking at things, or the neighbour’s cat is pacing on the other side of the glass hassling your budgies.
