What kind of threat can carpets cause for cats?
Mostly the threat is in the opposite direction. :-/
Newly installed carpeting will out-gas for a while, which could be a
problem for a cat with respiratory issues. I worried about that when we
had the upstairs redone a few years ago, but Will's asthma is
well-controlled and he showed no effects.
I heard that because carpet's so hard to clean and it can't be
sanitized, it can harbor any germ or virus...YUCK!
Is this just a nasty rumor?
Only if you leave them swamp damp.
