For millions of Indians, pets are family. Be it a child or a pet, homeowners often make certain makeovers to living spaces or go as far as buying a pet-friendly house that is comfortable for their loved ones.
Pet parents are well aware of the specific needs and behaviour of their furry buds. From selecting pet-friendly materials to creating a dedicated space, homeowners buy a property that prioritises the needs of all family members including pets.
There are villa plots in Chandapura spread across 34 acres that feature parks exclusively for pets, called Paw Parks. Real estate developers are figuring out ways to incorporate pet-friendly property features to attract home buyers. A new trend known as “barkitecture” is gaining prominence.
While pets make perfect companions and brim with unconditional love, they can be less than purr-fect:
- Neighbourhood & Location
A neighborhood with access to green spaces, pet parks, veterinary clinics, and pet stores is best described as a pet-friendly neighborhood. Make sure the gated community allows pets to avoid future stress.
Additionally, the location can impact your pet’s daily routine. If the locality has many street dogs and your furry friend is a lap dog, rabbit or cat, you’ll need to take extra precautions— keeping the gates locked, periphery walls high and morning walks short. If it’s an orange cat, “God save the street dogs”.
- Spacious House
Pets need their space, too. It’s a must for pet-friendly property. They need room to run, explore, and move freely. A spacious home allows a dedicated sleeping spot, a food zone, and a toy area for their activities.
- Flooring
Smooth, polished flooring can adversely affect both pets and the flooring. Pet nails could overgrow and bend on such surfaces, requiring frequent trimming.
Scratch-resistant, durable floors like laminate or vinyl are common pet-friendly options.
- Walls
Noise-proof materials and no shared walls may be a priority. The hollow cores and dense structure of concrete blocks act as a natural noise barrier limiting vibrations travelling through the walls.
Washable, easy maintenance, scrubbable paint is best for cleaning up spills and spots from the walls. Satin or gloss finishes are easier to wipe and help repel fur.
- Interiors
Pets are in for a treat of their life with big, low windows— like their own WWW (World Wide Web). It connects them to the outside world while still being indoors.
A window deck is another lavish feature for pets allowing them to relax, nap, sunbathe and play.
- Open Space
A pet-friendly house is crucial for physical and mental health well-being. Think of a house next to a busy street or surrounded by buildings. It can stress pets out, leading to aggressive behaviour.
Would you enjoy studying, sleeping, working, or even watching TV while surrounded by honking, roaring engines and shouting children? Pets have extremely sensitive perceptions. A green, open space keeps them calm and focused on their surroundings, helping them to act alert and sharp.
To conclude, a pet-friendly home includes several factors that ensure your furry friends can move around freely and safely. Browse through hot properties in prime locations of Bangalore and Hyderabad at www.theceyone.com.
