Moroccan Rugs: Natural Art on the Floor

A Moroccan rug is more than a carpet; it is a natural art on the floor from the North African country of Morocco. The demand for handwoven wool rugs, dyed with natural colors and decorated with simple almost primitive designs, has grown worldwide. These rugs have become memorable treasures for those who visit Morocco and bring a piece of its culture home.

A Story from Texas: Four Moroccan Rugs Arrive at PetPeePee

A lovely lady from Texas shipped four Moroccan rugs to the PetPeePee warehouse for one reason: dog urine odor removal.

Why Send Rugs from Texas to Florida?

The lady explained her story. “I lived in Morocco for two years on a National Geographic mission. The rugs covered the house we rented during my time there. When we left, I brought all six rugs back to Texas. Unfortunately, the previous cat in Morocco left odor in the rugs, and my cats in Texas also pee-pee on them.”

Without knowing the risks of cleaning Oriental rugs, she brought the carpets to a local rug cleaner. Two weeks later, she found her rugs still carrying cat pee odor, but now with colors that had bled and faded. The cleaner admitted he damaged the rugs, leaving her helpless.

She turned to PetPeePee for a solution.

What You Should Know Before Sending Your Rug for Cleaning

An educated consumer is our best customer. Before giving your Oriental rug to a cleaner, ask yourself what could go wrong.

Common Problems with Rug Cleaning

  • The rug may still smell like urine odor.

  • The colors may bleed.

  • The rug may lose its softness.

  • The colors may look dull or faded.

  • The rug may carry a chemical smell.

  • The rug may look like it went through a washing machine.

Why Does This Happen?

When a carpet cleaner uses strong detergents or a scrubbing machine, the wool fibers are damaged. The scrubbing motion breaks the yarn and moves the dye from dark areas into lighter areas, causing permanent color bleed.

How to Find the Right Oriental Rug Cleaner

Always ask these questions before you trust a company with your Moroccan or Persian rug:

  • Do you guarantee in writing permanent urine odor removal?

  • Do you guarantee no chemical smell upon delivery?

  • Do you guarantee the colors will never bleed?

  • Do you show your cleaning process on YouTube?

  • Do you use a scrubber during cleaning?

  • Do you dry the rug flat on the floor, or do you hang it?

“My wife found PetPeePee as I was about to throw away our expensive Moroccan carpets soaked in cat urine. The smell was unbearable. PetPeePee explained everything, guaranteed the results, and even arranged FedEx shipping. The rugs came back odor-free, clean, and beautiful. We cannot recommend PetPeePee highly enough. Our rugs will be enjoyed for many years. Thank you!”
