About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the staff at RSPCA were closing up for the day, they heard strange noises coming from one of the kennels. A little girl visiting her dog noticed something even stranger—an old man in the hallway kept whispering softly to himself and patting an empty cage. Curious, she followed him around the corner and found another empty cage with a tiny note stuck inside: ‘To my sweet Lucky, see you soon.’ The next morning, everyone discovered that Lucky had been adopted by a regular who always brought extra treats for his new friend.’

2. At night, when the staff at RSPCA were closing up for the day, they noticed something unusual in one of the kennels. A little puppy kept staring at an empty cage across the hallway, as if it could see someone or something that wasn’t there. Curious, one of the vets approached the puppy and asked gently, ‘Who are you looking for?’ The little guy wagged his tail and pointed towards the empty cage with his nose. Just then, a delivery driver arrived with a crate full of toys. One toy dog looked exactly like the puppy’s reflection in the cage! Everyone laughed, realizing it was just a case of mistaken mirage.

3. At night, when the staff at RSPCA were closing up for the day, they noticed something strange coming from one of the kennels: a soft humming sound that seemed almost like singing. Curious, they opened the door and found an old radio tuned to some cheesy 80s pop song. It turned out to be an abandoned pet’s favorite tune, left on repeat by a well-meaning neighbor who delivered supplies there regularly. From then on, every evening, the staff would leave the radio playing softly in the kennel, knowing it brought comfort to the animals.

4. Late one night, as a delivery driver approached the RSPCA, he heard an odd humming sound coming from inside the building. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed the strange glow emanating from behind the reception desk. As he watched more closely, he saw that it was just an old lamp, its bulb flickering eerily in the dark hallway. Startled, he knocked on the door, and a sleepy volunteer asked what all the commotion was about. Turns out, the lamp had been fixed there for weeks, and everyone knew about it except our intrepid delivery man. Relieved, he apologized and left, muttering something about needing more coffee.
