Whether you like it or not, pets, like dogs and cats, might scratch, sleep, and pee on your beloved vintage sofa in Singapore. And it is a massive headache for homeowners when their pet does that. The smell, fur, and rips on your settee do not make it a perfect place to lounge with your guests.
The key is to buy a pet-friendly sofa online in Singapore that is durable and easy to maintain.
Here are some tips on how to buy pet-friendly sofa furniture in Singapore:
1. Consider the type of upholstery.
Fabrics harbour tons of pet fur, and you may need a lint roller to remove the hair from time to time. The best sofa fabrics for homeowners with pets are leather, synthetic leather, and denim.
Leather and faux leather are easy to clean, do not harbour fur, and are very durable materials. They are water-resistant, so pees are no problem.
Like leather, denim's tight weave makes it durable and easy to clean. You can remove the fur through a vacuum cleaner. The only downside is that it is not water-resistant.
2. Slipcovers and removable cushions.
Sofas with slipcovers and removable cushions are also the best options for pet owners. When pets pee on the couch, they could easily clean the sofa by removing the slipcovers and cushions and changing them with a clean one. You can find a sofa with slipcovers and removable cushions in a furniture shop online in Singapore.
3. Choose sofas with tall and slender legs.
When it comes to sofa bottoms, you have two options: the low and skirted and the exposed, tall legs. Opt for the latter one as it deters cats from scratching!
4. Choose a sofa that is the same colour as your pet.
Do you want to trick yourself and your guests? Pet hairs on the sofa are less apparent if they are the same colour as the furniture.
