Choosing the right wall paint and colors
Opt for neutral colors like white or beige to create a clean and soothing ambiance for both homeowners and pets.
These colors not only provide a comfortable feel but also make it easier to adjust home decor.
Additionally, ensure you use eco-friendly, non-toxic, and easy-to-clean wall paint, especially if your pet loves to play or lean against the walls.
Pet-Safe Decorative Plants
Houseplants can make interiors feel more lively and fresh, but be sure to choose plants that are safe and non-toxic for pets. Some safe options include Calathea, Areca Palm, and Spider Plant. Alternatively, artificial plants can offer a natural look with minimal risk.
Safe decorative accessories
When selecting decorations and accessories for a pet-friendly home, it's important to consider safety and aesthetics. Choose decorations that are large enough and securely attached to prevent accidents while enhancing the beauty of the room.
For pet-friendly decorative touches,
pet accessories like pet beds or feeding tables from IKEA can be a great choice.
These products are designed to be both functional and blend seamlessly with home decor, ensuring your home stays tidy and attractive without compromising pet comfort.
Feeding and drinking stations that blend with decor
Your pet's feeding area should also be arranged to align with your home’s interior concept. Opt for stylish and comfortable
feeding bowls from IKEA as a solution to meet your pet’s needs without disrupting the room’s appearance.
Choose durable, high-quality bowls with a design that harmonizes with other furniture. To maintain cleanliness, place the feeding station in an easily accessible corner and use a non-slip mat to keep it stable and prevent food and water spills.
Important spaces in a pet-friendly home
Every room in the house serves a different function, so homeowners must reorganize each area to suit their pets’ needs and habits. Here are some spaces to focus on:
Living room: interaction area for guests and pets
The living room is the main interaction space for homeowners, guests, and pets. Ensure furniture such as tables, chairs, and sofas are well-arranged so that everyone can sit comfortably. Use carpets with easy-to-clean fibers to keep the room tidy.
Bedroom: a cozy zone for owners and pets
The bedroom should be a comfortable resting place for both homeowners and pets. Choose bedding materials resistant to scratches and dirt. If possible, provide a dedicated space like a small pet bed so they have their own area without disturbing the owner’s comfort.

Play area: dedicated space for pets
Pets need a safe and comfortable play area where they can stay active without damaging household items. With the right design, a play area can blend seamlessly with home decor without sacrificing beauty and functionality.
Creating an engaging play corner can start with installing a cat tree or wall-mounted play structures, providing more exploration opportunities without taking up main living space. Additionally, choose aesthetically pleasing pet toys and arrange them thoughtfully to avoid cluttering daily activity areas.
Create a comfortable & aesthetic pet-friendly home!
