Rug Size Guides
Fur rugs are luxurious, comfortable accents for today’s homes. Whether the rug is pure sheepskin or faux fur, there are special ways to care for the rug to ensure it stays clean and comfortable. While it is important to look at your rug’s specific care instructions, these guidelines will also serve to help you care for your fur or faux fur rug.
Like any other rug, it is vital to regularly care for your rug with intentionality and discretion. If you clean your rug with the improper vacuum head or cleaning detergent, you may risk damaging the rug’s surface fibers and staining the rug. Natural sheepskin rugs may also develop matted sections over time that need careful brushing with a wool comb or slicker brush to remove the tangles.
Whether the rug is a faux fur or genuine article, the first step in cleaning the rug is to shake out any loose dirt and debris. After that, vacuum the rug using the suction function. Attachments with beaters or revolving bars shouldn’t be used on fur, since they can cause the fibers to tangle. Use the vacuum in the direction of the hair to further avoid tangling the fibers.
When spot-cleaning a rug, be sure that the cleaner is specifically approved for your rug’s material. Even in these scenarios, we recommend testing the cleaner on a hidden portion of the rug to test the rug’s color fastness and reaction to the detergent. After using the treatment, allow the rug to thoroughly dry before putting it back in its previous place or under any furniture.
To help you clean your fur rug, we recommend having the following tools on hand.
Vacuum: Your vacuum should be used with its suction-mode only, since beater bars and other attachments may damage the rug’s fibers. There is also a danger of the incorrect vacuum attachment tangling the fur and creating deep, matted surfaces.
Slicker Brush or Wool Comb: If your rug has deep tangles or mattes, these two brushes can be used to remove those clumps and restore the rug to its former glory. Keep in mind that these tools are used in slow, steady ways that require patience and a gentle hand.
Soft-Bristled Brush: If you are spot-cleaning your rug, you may use a soft-bristled brush to work your cleaner into the rug’s deeper fibers. Once again, because of the nature of the fur, choose a brush that is soft and gently scrub the area. Alternatively, a rag can be used to spread the cleaner throughout the rug.
Mild Detergent: In the case of authentic wool fur rugs, be sure to choose a detergent that is approved for wool. Faux fur rugs can be treated with mild detergents and solutions to remove surface-level stains or deeper stains.

If you are cleaning the entire rug, you may use the method detailed above along with the recommended cleaning solution or an approved commercial detergent. However, we recommend cleaning the rug outdoors to give you more room to work and avoid damaging the flooring beneath the rug with water. Place your rug on a clean outdoor surface like a patio or balcony where it won’t be exposed to soil, mud, or loose stones.
Regular maintenance is a crucial part of caring for your fur rug. Regular brushing will break up any matting or tangles before they can become widespread or noticeable problems. Vacuuming will also help reinvigorate the rug’s fibers and keep them from gathering dust.
As a part of your care, it is important to know what sort of damage your rug may be susceptible to. Consider if the rug can handle direct sunlight or heavy traffic. This will help you decide on the best placement for your rug and give you the motivation to rotate it so no single portion of the rug is worn down by foot traffic.
Fur rugs are a stunning accent for today’s homes. Whether it is placed in a well-traveled room like a living room or a secluded bedroom, it is vital to care for your rug consistently and intentionally to keep the rug soft, comfortable, and beautiful. With the cleaning methods detailed above, you now have the knowledge to care for your fur or faux fur area rug.
