About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something unusual on the hospital’s intercom: ‘Attention all staff—your pets are plotting against you.’ The message was signed simply, ‘Your Furry Friends.’ The delivery driver chuckled and thought it must be some prank from an overactive imagination. Later that day, however, several patients mysteriously escaped their kennels, causing a mild commotion but no real harm. A neighbor quipped, 'Guess they took the note seriously!' Everyone had a good laugh, and life returned to normal—except for occasional whispers of conspiracy theories among the staff.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside the VCA Animal Hospital and froze in surprise. The air was filled with an eerie, familiar scent—a whiff of freshly baked cookies wafted from the building's open door. Curious, he tiptoed inside and found an elderly vet, Mrs. Jenkins, standing in the hallway, her hands covered in flour. ‘Oh dear,’ she said, noticing him. ‘I must’ve been testing my new cookie recipe for the staff party.’ The delivery driver relaxed, smiling. Outside, the moonlight reflected off the hospital’s windows, casting a comforting glow on the quiet street.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside the VCA Animal Hospital and heard an eerie howling coming from inside. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw rows of animals staring back at him with knowing eyes. Suddenly, a small dog in the corner perked its ears and wagged its tail, as if inviting him in. The driver shrugged and opened the door—only to be greeted by a chorus of enthusiastic barks and wagging tails. It turned out that the ‘howling’ was just a bunch of happy dogs greeting their late-night visitor.

4. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up outside the VCA Animal Hospital and heard a strange whimpering sound coming from inside. Curious, he peered through the window and saw an old cat sitting in front of the reception desk, staring intently at the closed door. The cat seemed determined yet puzzled, as if it were trying to tell him something important. The delivery driver knocked gently on the door, but no one answered. With a shrug, he left his package and walked away. Later that evening, a neighbor passing by noticed the same cat still sitting there, now joined by another curious feline friend. They both stared longingly after the departing delivery truck until finally, they decided to follow its scent back out into the night—leaving behind just their footprints in the snow.
