Pet Friendly Slipcovers

Dog and cat owners reading this will no doubt be all too used to the losing battle they face in keeping their homes and furniture clean, fresh and relatively hair-free.  Cats love to curl up in a warm spot on the couch and show little regard for the fact that they’ve just been out in the garden and have mud all over their paws.  Dogs too, given the chance, will climb up on to the sofa, thinking they’re part of the family after all, so why not.  And they clearly don’t care that they’re still wet from that long walk in the rain.

As much as we love our pets, it can be frustrating to be forever scrubbing dirty paw-marks from our furniture.  Having friends or family to visit can be embarrassing too, if your sofa smells of damp dog or your wing chair is covered in a layer of cat hairs.  With the holiday season fast approaching, our home’s appearance is even more important if we want to give our guests a good impression.

Luckily for pet owners, help is at hand, with Sure Fit’s range of pet friendly slipcovers.  One of the reasons that I love furniture slipcovers is that they are easy to care for, being machine washable.  It’s so much easier to remove a dirty slipcover and throw it in the wash than to try and remove individual stains by hand.  As well as being washable, most of these pet friendly furniture covers are made from 100% cotton, which is hardwearing and can stand up to lots of use and abuse without becoming worn or faded.

Popular styles include the cotton duck for sofas, loveseats and chairs.  These T-cushion slipcovers are available in seven different solid colors, so there should be something here to match any color scheme.  The Performance Twill is another favourite.  These loveseat and sofa slipcovers are available in a neutral khaki or a rich, warm claret.  An added bonus of this fabric is that it’s been treated with Scotchgard, which helps stop dirt sticking to it, thus making it easier to keep clean.
