IKEA Just Announced A New Pet Collection And We'll Take Two Of Everything

Written by Jaymi Naciri Posted On Sunday, 22 October 2017 07:56

Admit it. IKEA is your guilty pleasure. For us, it's a little like décor Disneyland, and we soak up all that Scandinavian goodness with a side of Swedish meatballs. An easy little dresser we can hack into something amazing here, an inexpensive set of pillows there. And don't even get us started on the kitchen gadget or lighting sections.

The one thing they have always been missing: stuff to make our pets as happy as their build-it-yourself everything makes us. Until now. IKEA's just-announced LURVIG collection offers pet products for dogs and cats, including beds, couch covers, scratching posts, and accessories.

"Have you ever felt like your cat or dog wasn't just a pet, but a member of the family? It's exactly that focus that led IKEA to make the comprehensive LURVIG pet product range," they said. "Created by pet loving designers with support from trained veterinarians, the range covers all the bases of our shared life with pets indoors and out, so you and your pet can enjoy your home together." 

LURVIG means "hairy" in Swedish, BTW. Appropriate, no? Check out some of our faves from the upcoming collection.

Forget that regular old dog bed. This one has a bona fide frame that raises it up from the floor and can also be used upside down for more height.

Then, choose from an array of different cushions to complement your décor. At $7.99 to $19.99 depending on the size, you can order a bunch.

We'll also be going with the "cat/dog bed," because, who are we kidding? THAT'S AN ANIMAL FUTON! We'll take one for each room of the house.

The cat house is practical and cute, and slips right into the KALLAX shelf unit.

For the pooch that loves propping his head up on a pillow.

Same color story, different graphic pattern: This dog blanket will look great on your couch, and you and your guests will appreciate how it leaves the other cushions dog-hair-free.

Forget the ugly scratching post and protect your furniture at the same time by wrapping the legs with this LURVIG scratching mat. Even better—it's only $5.99.

A kitty hangout that's also a chic side table? Yes, please. (It's actually a cat house on legs, but we're not telling anyone that.)

It's not like you can't get a dog bowl at any pet store, home improvement store, Target, Walmart, and on and on. But the nicer ones can be pricey. These bowls are metal, and also have a non-slip bottom, for just $2.99!

We also like IKEA's new collection of leashes, harnesses, and collars, which are affordable, come in a range of sizes, and are made of a reflective material.
