Score how well your room stands up to pets, from floors and fabrics to toxic plants, with the fixes to make first.
How this works
Scratch and stain resistant floors (tile, luxury vinyl) and tight-weave or leather fabrics last best with pets. Velvet, linen and loop-pile carpet snag and stain. Lilies are deadly to cats and many common houseplants (pothos, monstera, peace lily) upset pets. Each factor carries points out of 100.
