About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. At night, when the Veterinary Emergency Group closed its doors, a strange howling could be heard from the empty hallway. A little girl visiting her sick dog noticed it first—her pug seemed to join in, tilting his head curiously. As she approached the corner, the howl grew louder and more insistent. Suddenly, an old man appeared around the bend, muttering to himself while pushing a shopping cart filled with cat toys. ‘Just ignore it,’ he said, noticing her startled expression. ‘It’s just my Siamese, thinks he’s a wolf.’

2. In the early morning hours, when Veterinary Emergency Group was quiet and dark, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar outside the clinic's window. Curious, he peered closer through the glass. Suddenly, an oversized dog toy tumbled down from the ceiling, bounced off the counter, and landed right in front of him. Startled, he looked around only to see a sleepy-looking cat yawning from behind the reception desk. ‘Morning,’ it yawned again, stretching its paws. The delivery driver nearly dropped his package laughing.

3. Late one night, while a little girl waited anxiously for her pet hamster’s surgery, she heard something peculiar coming from behind the curtain. Was it the hum of machinery or a distant purr? No one else seemed to notice but her curious gaze kept returning to that mysterious sound. Finally, the vet emerged with a sleepy-looking hamster and a smile. ‘He’ll be fine,’ she said reassuringly. The little girl looked up questioningly, and the vet added softly, “Just next time maybe don’t leave him in the car so long—even if it was just a delivery driver’s joke.”

4. Late one night, while a delivery driver parked outside the Veterinary Emergency Group, he heard an odd humming coming from inside the building. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw nothing unusual—until he noticed a faint glow emanating from behind the reception desk. As he approached closer, he saw that it was just a stray cat sitting on top of the computer monitor, purring contentedly. The poor animal must’ve been left there by a neighbor who thought it would be safer inside than out in the cold night air. With a smile, the delivery driver picked up the little furball and took him home for the evening.
