Motel 6 Partners With The Humane Society Of The United States To Help Pet Owners In Need

Motel 6 is teaming up with the Humane Society of the United States to help support pet owners in need.

According to a press release, Motel 6 and its extended-stay chain Studio 6 are working with HSUS to support the organization's More Than a Pet campaign.

As the press release notes, the goal of the campaign is to "raise awareness of the pet poverty crisis, provide financial solutions for struggling pet owners, and keep pets and their families together by increasing access to care and supplies."

To support the campaign, Motel 6 and Studio 6 will sponsor up to nine truckloads of pet food in areas that need it most. Through their donation, up to 15,300 animals will be fed for one month.

In the press release, Julie Arrowsmith, president and interim CEO of Motel 6's parent company, said: "We're passionate about this partnership with the Humane Society of the United States that offers loving individuals support with pet ownership – no matter their budget. For those looking to spend quality time with their furry friends on the road, we'll be there to offer an affordable, clean and comfortable spot to rest and play."

This isn't the first time Motel 6 has stepped up in support of pets and pet owners. They're well-known for being pet-friendly and allow pets to stay free at all locations.

Now, they're taking things a step further through their partnership with HSUS. Thanks to Motel 6 and Studio 6, thousands of pet owners will be able to access food that might otherwise be a financial burden or inaccessible.

HSUS's campaign helps keep pets and their owners together through offering medical services, food, and bringing awareness to the crisis.

According to HSUS, they've served "more than 500,000 pets and their families living in poverty with veterinary services such as spay/neuter and vaccinations at no cost to the pet's family."

Beyond that, they've donated "more than $40 million worth of pet supplies, including 14 million pounds of pet food."
