What Blinds are Best for Homeowners with Pets?

Trying to dog-proof or cat-proof your home can be challenging. While most fabric furniture, rugs, and curtains can show wear and tear from the everyday life of having pets, there are some window treatments that may be able to withstand your furry friends.

While there is technically no such thing as cat proof blinds or dog proof blinds, our team at Custom Window Coverings can help you find durable window treatments that can look good for years even if you have playful animals running around your home.

Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds

Modern Precious Metals® Mini Blinds feature durable aluminum material designed to bounce back into place. Since these blinds are more sturdy than soft window treatments, this makes them a great choice for those looking for dog proof or cat proof blinds.

The best part about these blinds? They’re as stylish as they are practical. With a sleek, streamlined design, Hunter Douglas metal blinds provide a chic touch to any modern or contemporary space. To take your design a step further, consider adding decorative tapes in patterns of colors that coordinate with the rest of your room.

EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds

EverWood® Faux Wood Blinds mimic the look of hardwood, but they're made from a more durable composite material. Unlike wood, which can show claw prints or teeth marks with enough time, these are more durable and less likely to show wear than other window treatments. If you like the look of traditional wood but desire something that’s more hard-wearing, these can be a good option for homeowners looking for dog proof or cat proof blinds.

These blinds also feature Performance Plus™ Protection. This ensures that your blinds will never fade, chip, crack, or peel. Also beautiful to look at, these faux wood blinds come in a range of colors to help coordinate with your existing décor or color palette.

Add Motorization to Keep Your Pets Safer

Many pet owners know the dangers that hanging cords pose to their cats and dogs. Playtime can quickly turn into a disaster if your pet accidentally pulls down your blinds while playing with the cords. Additionally, these cords can pose a danger to your pet’s health and safety if they’re accidentally entangled.

With Hunter Douglas PowerView® Automation, all these worries can be things of the past. This motorization feature doesn’t use cords; rather, it uses advanced technology to control your blinds through the use of a smart phone, remote control, or voice command to adjust the slats of your blinds open or closed.
