Indianapolis Animal Urgent Care

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the urgent care center with an unusual patient—a tiny turtle that had somehow ended up in the back of the truck. As he tried to explain what happened, several curious staff members gathered around, whispering and pointing. Was it really just an accident, or did something more mysterious lie behind the reptilian visitor’s arrival? Just then, another vet tech poked her head out from the back room and asked, ‘Hey, has anyone seen my hamster?’ The turtle looked up innocently and seemed to shrug its shell. A regular chuckled and said, ‘I’d say he found his way here on purpose—maybe for a late-night snack!’

2. Early morning in Indianapolis, when most vets are already home in bed, someone started leaving strange notes outside the Animal Urgent Care. Notes like ‘Your services are urgently needed’ or ‘Emergency situation at your location.’ Curious staff opened the first note only to discover it contained nothing but tiny packets of peanut butter. One night, a delivery driver dropped off an extra-large box marked ‘Top Secret’. Staff opened it to find hundreds of miniature spoons filled with peanut butter. Turned out, a regular had been joking around, thinking it’d be fun to keep them on alert. The vet clinic became known as the place where even emergencies were sweetened up.

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to the urgent care center with an unusual package. As he approached the door, a small voice called out from inside: 'Is that you, Mr. Brown?' Upon opening the door, Mr. Brown found himself face-to-face with a tiny puppy, who wagged its tail and said, ‘I’m sorry I barked at you earlier—thought you were just another delivery guy!’ The vet staff laughed heartily as they welcomed both Mr. Brown and his new furry friend into the clinic.

4. Early morning in Indianapolis, when most vets are already home in bed, someone started leaving funny notes on the urgent care center’s door. "Your shift is over, go home!" read one note. The staff laughed it off until they realized none of them had been there. Finally, after hours of puzzling, a delivery driver joked that maybe it was the animals themselves who were sending messages. Everyone burst out laughing—until they saw a tiny paw print on the door. Turns out, it wasn’t pranks but just an overly enthusiastic puppy trying to get attention.
