🐾 7 Simple Ways to Pet-Proof Your Home Without Sacrificing Style
Sharing your space with a furry friend doesn’t mean you have to compromise on style. With a few smart swaps and stylish upgrades, you can create a beautiful, pet-friendly home that works for everyone — including Max & Rex.
1. Opt for Washable Throws & Slipcovers
Protect your couch from fur, drool, and muddy paws with machine-washable covers in neutral tones or trendy patterns. Bonus: It’s an easy way to switch up your look seasonally.
2. Elevate Their Essentials
Ditch the plastic bowls and upgrade to ceramic or matte-finish feeders that blend beautifully into your kitchen or dining space.
3. Hide the Litter Box (In Style)
A litter box enclosure can double as a chic side table or bench. Our favorites? Sleek wood designs with discreet entry points — because your cat deserves privacy and your room deserves charm.
4. Add Vertical Space for Cats
Modern wall shelves or multi-use cat trees give your feline a place to perch without cluttering your floors. Choose wood finishes that match your existing furniture.
5. Use Rugs that Hide Fur & Wear
Patterned, low-pile rugs in darker tones can hide hair and high-traffic wear while adding warmth to your space. Look for washable or stain-resistant options.
6. Secure & Style Cords and Cables
Protect curious pets from chewing hazards by organizing wires into stylish cable covers or woven baskets that double as décor.
7. Choose Pet Beds That Fit Your Aesthetic
A cozy pet bed doesn’t have to stick out. Look for donut beds in soft, neutral hues or opt for modern designs that match your room’s vibe — like the ones featured in our Max & Rex collection.
Pet-proofing your space doesn’t mean giving up on good design. With a few intentional choices, you can build a beautiful home that feels just as good to your pets as it does to you.
