About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One foggy morning in Uptown, a delivery driver pulled up to the animal hospital with a peculiar package. As he approached the door, a regular glanced outside and noticed something odd: the usually bustling waiting room was completely empty. Curious, the regular tiptoed inside and found all the doors locked from the inside. Just as he was about to alert someone, a tiny voice whispered from behind the reception desk: 'Hey, don’t worry—we’re just having our morning meeting!' The vet staff emerged one by one, wearing coats and hats, ready for their daily rounds.

2. One night, an overworked vet tech was closing up the Uptown Animal Hospital when she noticed something odd: all the dogs seemed to be staring at the same spot on the wall. Curious, she walked over and saw a tiny mouse peeking out from behind a shelf. The dogs were simply watching their little friend explore. With a smile, she quietly opened the door for the mouse, who scurried outside into the night. That’s why they say if you ever hear strange noises after hours at Uptown Animal Hospital, it might just be a neighborhood mouse paying a visit.

3. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up to the Uptown Animal Hospital and noticed something strange: the parking lot lights were flickering like they had a mind of their own. Curious, he approached the entrance, only to hear a faint meow from inside. The door opened with a creak, revealing a small, sleepy cat sitting by the reception desk. ‘Must be late for his shift,’ thought the driver, but as he turned around, he saw the entire hospital staff—cats, dogs, even a parrot—all yawning and stretching lazily. Turned out it was closing time, and everyone was just getting ready for bed.

4. Late one evening, a delivery driver pulled up to the Uptown Animal Hospital with a crate full of puppies. As he approached the door, a tiny voice piped up from inside: 'Daddy, look what I found!' The delivery driver looked around, startled, but saw no one else. ‘Honey,’ he called out gently, ‘where are you?’ A small head popped out from behind a nearby desk, followed by a curious little terrier mix. ‘Mommy said you’d be here!’ The puppy wagged its tail excitedly as another staff member walked over, laughing softly. ‘Oh, hello there,’ she said, scooping up the pup. ‘Looks like someone’s been exploring.’
