TORONTO — Recently, Motel 6, Proud Sponsor of Pets and official hotel partner of The Garfield Movie, appointed its first-ever Chief Pet Officer to help make travelling with pets easier, safer and, most importantly, more fun. The world-famous and beloved orange tabby cat, Garfield, has stepped into the role in support of the new Columbia Pictures/Alcon Entertainment hit animated film, now playing exclusively in movie theatres.
“After a lasagna-filled adventure, Garfield knows he’ll experience VIP (Very Important Paws) hospitality at Motel 6,” says Irwin Prince, president and COO of Realstar Hospitality, master franchisor of the Motel 6 brand in Canada. “At Motel 6 we are proud to be pet-friendly and offer a clean, comfortable room to travellers and their furry companions.”
