Long Animal Hospital

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the streets were quiet, a mysterious voice would come over Long Animal Hospital’s intercom: ‘Your pet is ready for its special treatment.’ No one knew who was behind it or what exactly that meant. One day, a delivery driver heard the voice and followed the instructions. When he arrived at the hospital, an old cat emerged from the shadows, meowing excitedly: 'Finally, my pizza!' Another time, a neighbor received a note saying their dog needed urgent 'special treatment'—turns out it just wanted its favorite toy back.

2. Late one morning, a delivery driver pulled up to the hospital with a box full of supplies. As he approached the door, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside—a soft, almost whimpering purr. Curious, he opened the door just a crack and peered in—only to see a small furry creature sitting on the counter, licking its paws and staring back at him with big round eyes. Startled, the delivery driver nearly dropped his clipboard, but then the animal gave another contented purr, as if it had been waiting for him all along. Turns out it was just a neighborhood cat who’d snuck into the empty office for some quiet nap time.

3. One day, while walking past the Long Animal Hospital, a neighbor stopped and asked aloud, ‘I wonder if they ever treat animals that can’t even see the vet?’ Another time, a delivery driver walked in with a package under his arm and said, 'Hey, do you guys take credit cards?' The receptionist replied, 'Only for surgeries!' Everyone burst out laughing—even the dogs in the waiting room.

4. On foggy nights, when most people were asleep, an old dog named Max would appear outside the Long Animal Hospital's gates. He never barked or begged for food—he just stood there, staring at the building with a knowing look in his eyes. One night, a delivery driver saw Max and offered him a sausage from his truck. Max took one sniff, then led the man inside. Turns out, it was just an overly curious canine who loved sausages more than he hated late-night shifts—happy ending for everyone!
