Healthy Rugs For My Pets

Is Wool Rug Healthy For My Pets?

Owning pets can be one of the great experiences in life, but it also comes with some challenges when it comes to maintaining a clean and healthy home. If you're a pet owner, you know that pets might shed a lot of hair and dander, which can cause allergies and affect the air quality in your home. However, a solution can help keep you and your furry friend happy and healthy: wool rugs!

 

Wool rugs are excellent for pet owners because they resist stains, odors, and moisture. If your pet has an accident on the rug, you can easily clean it up without worrying about the stain setting in or leaving a lingering odor. Wool fibers are also naturally moisture-wicking, absorbing, and releasing moisture without becoming damp, which can help prevent the growth of mold and mildew. 

 

In addition to being easy to clean, wool rugs can also help improve air quality in your home. As mentioned earlier, wool fibers can trap and hold allergens and pollutants, including pet hair and dander. These particles won't be in the air as you or your pet walk on the rug, which can help reduce symptoms for those with allergies or asthma. 

 

Another benefit of wool rugs is that they are durable and long-lasting. Pets can be tough on floors and rugs, but wool fibers are naturally resilient and withstand heavy foot traffic and wear and tear. Therefore, your wool rug will last many years, even with regular use from your furry friend. 

 

Have a look at some of the rug collections hand-knotted with wool.
