Claws of pets can take a serious toll on wood flooring than even the heaviest human traffic.

Sunlight can cause even more damage than human traffic. It can severely change the coloring of the flooring. When you are installing hardwood flooring in a room that has a lot of direct sunlight, fading of the flooring can play a big factor in when the color will start to fade.
