We love our furry pets and we adore everything about them — except how unsightly their pet supplies are in the house.

From food bowls to crates, cat towers to toys, our animals come with a lot of things to make life great for them. That doesn’t mean it needs to be ugly. There are ways to cater your interior design for your pets.
Sharon McCormick, of Sharon McCormick Design, had a number of suggestions about how to better incorporate your pet gear into your home. Think multiple uses such as a crate that is part of an end table or a spot in your bottom kitchen cabinets for food bowls. There are tons of creative ways to make your home look great and keep your dog or cat happy and healthy.
The first tip is to create a recess in your bottom kitchen cabinets for built-in food and water bowls. She suggested including a faucet over the water bowl to prevent spills. Every pet owner knows the annoyance of filling up the water bowl to the brim only to spill half of it before putting it back down on the floor.
The next tip is to consider using an end cabinet in a kitchen, mud room or laundry room as a pet bed.
