Sometimes true, but knowing that is one reason for the hardwood
floors. The only room with good area rugs is the living room and cats
are ot permited in there. The one cat that throws up most often is
Peach, she tends to eat too much at one time, mostly she heaves in the
water bowl, easy to clean.
I can't understand the concept of wall to wall carpeting, no matter
how often it's vacuumed and shampooed it'salways filthy. it's filthy
when it's brand new (chemicals, and constantly outgassing). All the
fine (dangerous) schmutz migrates down into the padding, and the
padding is constantly decaying until it's mostly particulates.
Quality wall to wall carpeting is expensive and doesn't last very
long, if it gets ten years you're lucky. Hardwood flooring isn't very
expensive to have installed and can last three lifetimes... when you
tire of the look it can easily be refinished to any look you like.
Don't install laminated wood flooring, it doesn't hold up well and
since it's only a thin veneer on plywood it can't be refinished...
real hardwood flooring is solid wood 3/4" thick.
