The hotel is filled with high-tech inventions created by the hotel owner and pets\u2019 caregiver, Robin.<\/p>\n<p><em>Pet Hotel<\/em> is produced by Tencent Video, Miaow\u2019s House and GZ Art-land. The series is directed by Robin Guo (<em>The Olympic Adventures of Fuwa<\/em>, <em>Cosmic Escort<\/em>) and written by Michael Ryan (<em>Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles<\/em>) and Thomas Krajewski (<em>Scooby-Doo and Guess Who?<\/em>). Vicky Zeng (<em>Five Thousand Years of Flying<\/em>, <em>Panda<\/em>,\u00a0<em>Little Mole<\/em>), Selina She (director of children&#8217;s IP development and programming for Tencent Video) and Eddie Ng (president of GZ Art-land,\u00a0<em>Deer Squad<\/em>)\u00a0serve as executive producers.<\/p>\n<p>She commented: \u201cWe are delighted to be teaming up with WildBrain to bring this beloved show to a broader, international audience. We can\u2019t wait to see children across the globe delight in the madcap exploits of Robin and his menagerie of guests.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Caroline Tyre, VP of global sales and rights strategy at WildBrain, said: \u201cThis exciting partnership with Tencent Video and Miaow\u2019s House represents the continued expansion of our business in China, and underscores WildBrain\u2019s international reach as we introduce audiences around the world to <em>Pet Hotel<\/em>. These laugh-out-loud tales of the Pet Hotel crew have universal appeal, and are sure to delight kids and families through their compelling storylines and endearing characters.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Guo added: \u201cWith \u2018companionship\u2019 as its core theme, <em>Pet Hotel<\/em> features characters Nai Nai, Vicky, Lili and Bubu, who are all based on real stray animals that I rescued in my daily life. Living together with these adorable animals inspired me to create this animated series. I aim to create a comedy that revolves around the unexpected intelligence of pets, showcasing their cuteness through exaggerated physical performances and concise dialogue, as well as their harmonious coexistence with humans. Kindness, tolerance, sharing and giving ultimately triumph over all difficulties. The concept of \u2018love\u2019 permeates every episode of <em>Pet Hotel<\/em>, making it a family-friendly and innovative animated sitcom series.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WildBrain has attained exclusive distribution rights, outside of mainland China, for Pet Hotel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3087,"featured_media":25674,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[21],"tags":[4687,8220,8221,8222,8223,3296,8224,1156],"class_list":["post-25673","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-caroline-tyre","tag-gz-art-land","tag-miaows-house","tag-michael-ryan","tag-pet-hotel","tag-tencent","tag-thomas-krajewski","tag-wildbrain","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>WildBrain Acquires New Animated Series - TVKIDS<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"WildBrain Acquires New Animated Series - TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"WildBrain has attained exclusive distribution rights, outside of mainland China, for Pet Hotel.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVKIDS\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-08-23T14:04:00+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-08-24T15:29:57+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2017\/07\/PetHotel-Wildbrain-0823.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"640\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"360\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Alexa Alfano\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/\",\"name\":\"WildBrain Acquires New Animated Series - TVKIDS\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-08-23T14:04:00+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-08-24T15:29:57+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/wildbrain-acquires-new-animated-series\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"WildBrain Acquires New Animated Series\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/\",\"name\":\"TVKIDS\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvkids\/#\/schema\/person\/2653b97e27eaf76a4713c75f0e821dad\",\"name\":\"Alexa Alfano\",\"description\":\"Alexa Alfano is associate editor at World Screen.
