This is genius! Built-in doggie dishes and drawers at the end of a kitchen island.

Great inspiration for an entry or mudroom. Provide a small dog bed between larger storage units.

A stylish and comfortable spot for humans and pets to enjoy. The best part: The cushion cover is removable to ensure easy cleaning.

Who thought a cat tree could look so modern? This is a million times better than bulky carpeted trees.

Adding runners to your hardwood floors will help prevent your dogs from slipping and sliding on the way to greet you.

Smaller pets have a tough time getting up on higher beds. Providing an upholstered bench at the foot of the bed is a good solution.

Add a comfortable spot in spaces that you spend a lot of time in -- this will make it easier for pets to be near you without being underfoot.

Marke do you have a larger pic of this (like taken from further back)? I would love to see how this could work.
marke says:
No, unfortunately. Basically, the maple cabinet secret panel could be latched back in an open position with a magnet so that the dogs could go in and out.

All of these are great ideas. Does anyone have a recommendation on how to camouflage litter pans?

I think I recall seeing a kitchen with a great solution for hiding litter boxes in Nesting Newbies' latest issue: http://nestingnewbies.com/magazine/issuethree.html

I am in the process of installing a custom master bath that incorporates a built-in litter box. The niche in the wall is completely lined with galvanized sheet metal to guard against 'accidents' and make for easy cleanup and there's even an internal vent to remove odors that is tied in to the rest of the bath exhaust system. Once it's complete it will not be obvious in the room, it's totally built in.
This is one posh litterbox setup! I wish it were finished so I could show a picture.

Love the built-in food stations. Also would like to see the kitty potty area that artisan has designed. Let us see it, when it's finished.
One of my clients has divided her home in half with decorative wrought iron gates. Five exotic cats live in one half, and 3 dobies in the other. I have my hands full (of fur BTW) trying to keep one cat happy.

Very nice, but where are the carpeted tree alternatives? Cats need to scratch, and I see nothing that serves the purpose.
nicheinteriors says:
Try using an inexpensive nubby basket as a scratching post. Store magazines and books inside so it's functional in two ways. Tuck it under a side table in the room you spend lots of time in -- this will encourage your cat to use this instead of your sofa. :)
