The Cochin Pet Hospital

Our place is at 27/2739 Vidhyanagar Cross Road, right in Panampilly Nagar. It’s almost always noisy here because of the dogs. Cats are usually quieter, but they don't seem to like the dogs much in the waiting area. We’ve been running this hospital for a while. The floor is easy to clean, which is a necessity in our line of work. We have a small yard out back where we let the animals stretch their legs sometimes. It’s not a fancy clinical environment like you see on TV. There’s usually a bit of hair on the floor no matter how much we sweep. The neighbors are used to the barking by now, thankfully. We see all kinds of pets, mostly dogs and cats, but sometimes people bring in more unusual things. Panampilly Nagar is a busy spot, so parking can be a bit of a headache for our visitors. We try to help out with that if we can. Inside, there's the smell of disinfectant and pet shampoo. It’s a busy life. We don't have much time for breaks. Most of us eat our lunch while standing up or sitting at the front desk. It's a lot of work, but we like the animals. They are easier to deal with than people sometimes. We have a big fridge in the back for medications and our own snacks. It's been a long day, but that is how it usually goes.
