Carpeting Pet Owners Have Been Waiting For

We've always had pets, and while we love them, they can be incredibly frustrating to clean up after *especially on carpeting. And surely we are not the only ones who knows this plight. In fact, the American Pet Product Association found that more homes in America have pets than children. That’s a whole lot of carpet damage just waiting to happen.

But there may be hope: Stainmaster has introduced a new PetProtect carpet system, designed especially for cat and dog owners. Stain master touts the line as taking on pet messes in three smart ways.

First, unlike many carpets, PetProtect builds dye and stain-resistance directly into the fibers, which means you can scrub and scrub (because, as pet owners know, accidents and muddy paws do happen) without  fading your rug or diminishing its resistance to stains.
The new carpeting is also designed to reduce pet hair cling, making it easier to vacuum away.

And finally, the carpet cushion has a moisture barrier that keeps pet accidents (or any other spills) from penetrating the padding and subfloors. This could be big for those of you housetraining a puppy: no more hidden stains that cause lingering odors.

PetProtect carpet comes with a lifetime warranty, is available in many styles and colors, and typically retails for $2 to $7 per square foot.
