Why do I need to protect my home from my pets?

Vet bills can be expensive, so it’s better to think ahead and limit the chance of unnecessary costs around the home. Simple additions to your interiors can limit the chances of your pets getting trapped, tripped, shocked or scorched, helping put your mind at rest.

Choosing a pet-friendly interior design can also keep your belongings looking better for longer. They will find it harder to express destructive tendencies if furniture is harder to chew, belongings are kept out of the way, valuables protected, and sturdier window coverings installed.

Even if you have a smaller animal, or even fish, it’s important to keep your space as pet-friendly as possible. Pets usually kept in cages can still cause chaos when they’re let out or exercised, so prepare in advance so you don’t end up having to pay out later.
