Appearance: The Secret Agent is a fully black tall cat with pointy ears, cheek fur and black whiskers. He wears a black vest over a white collared shirt, including a black tie and a white pocket square, a black belt, and black pants. His face features slit eyes with a vibrant yellow sclera resembling a cat's eyes, and his mouth and nose appears to be invisible, seeming his fur to be so dark.

Personality: The Secret Agent is a calculating, dominant, quiet, kept and observant character. He's stealthy and armed and hides in the shadows, keeping his distance. He specialises with utility, with his favourite weapon being a gun. Despite his seemingly mysterious and cold persona, he can create close bonds and would willingly sacrifice his life for the ones he hold close.

SIDE CHARACTERS: Appearance: Dr. Harlow is a semi-dark orange muntjac deer.[1] Wrapped around his neck is a black stethoscope. Underneath his coat is a blue medical scrub with a red tie. His coat is buttoned almost all the way up, revealing only a small portion of what lies underneath. On his head rests a head mirror with a brown band. In his right hand, he carries a black suitcase with the words "TOP SECRET" in red letters on it, similar to Ron from Accounting's suitcase. His face features slit eyes with black, shiny, irises, and his mouth is covered by a blue surgical face mask. On top of his head are two large, grey antlers. His forehead has dark orange patterns on his face, and his ears are a slightly darker color than his face. His appearance was updated in "Harlow's Favorite Update".

Personality: Little is known about Dr. Harlow's personality. As revealed in his hospital lobby dialogue, he has worked with the Animal Hospital for a long time and has seen many hires come and go. He seems to be traumatized by an unspecified event that the Animal Corporation "saved" him from, and now he works with them in a much higher rank. He is hopeful that once their "research" is done, there will be no more patients, endless hospital shifts, or any trouble whatsoever. Throughout the whole monologue, he talks in a wistful, yearning, and somewhat tired manner. The only things Dr. Harlow can be seen doing are sitting in the lobby while watching the player(s) do all the work, speaking with an Animal Corporation employee in a hazmat suit outside the hospital, going to the staff room, or coming to the reception office after the shift has ended.

MAP: Animal Hospital (Main Map) isn't a numbered treatment room — it's the parent overview that ties every other room together. The Lobby, Check-in Room, Medical Wing (Rooms 1-5 in the right corridor), Emergency Wing (Rooms 6, 7, 8 in the left corridor), and Staff Only Room all sit inside this map. This entry is the orientation page for the building itself; the per-room entries cover the specialised treatment minigames and unique hazards inside each one.

The Main Map's role is routing rather than direct treatment. Patients enter via the Lobby, get processed at the Check-in Room, then get triaged into the appropriate Wing based on their diagnostic profile. Cross-room events like the Ambulance Event

The Check-in Room is the player's primary operational workspace. Every patient intake passes through here, which means every anomaly-detection check (Photo Camera, CCTV monitor) also happens here. The room's defining feature is the monitor wall showing camera-status indicators (CAMS OFFLINE / ALL CAMS OPERATIONAL / outage count) — that's where the entire camera-only anomaly category (Censored Eyes, Unnatural Body, Staring at Camera, Void Body, Different Ears via CCTV cross-check, Disguised Shapeshifter on the lobby camera) gets detected per the Stage E.1 anomaly entries.

The room also doubles as the player's item-purchase station. The gray table holds telephones, sticky notes, a taser display case, and a Coffee Machine

The Lobby is the hospital's entrance area — the first room every player sees on spawn and the arrival point for the Shift 4 Ambulance Event patient surges. The room is dominated by waiting seating (3 rows of 5 chairs on each side per Fandom location documentation), with a large 'Animal Hospital' sign and a white cross icon centred above the entrance. Three windows ring the space — two at the rear, one near the front door.

Ambient NPCs add lobby flavour: Lobby Bunny sits on a bench.

Room 6 is the X-ray suite in the Emergency Wing (left corridor). Patients flagged for X-ray scanning come here for the copy-the-sequence minigame — a 4-color flash pattern that the player must reproduce to complete the scan. The minigame itself is forgiving compared to Room 8's 45-second surgery clock, but the room shares the same broad hazard pool as the other Emergency Wing rooms: fire events, fainted patients, and Bed Monster spawns under the patient bed.

Room 7 is the cardiac monitoring suite in the Emergency Wing (left corridor). The minigame is a steady click-up to 100% rather than a timed sequence — the failure mode here is usually not clock pressure but getting interrupted by one of the shared room hazards (fire spawn, fainted patient, Bed Monster) and having to abandon a run-up.

The heart monitor interface includes red skull penalty buttons that reset progress on misclick. Maintain rhythm — every wrong click costs you the build-up. If a hazard fires mid-monitor, handle it first and resume the click cycle from where you left off; the per-monitor progress doesn't auto-decay during pauses.

Room 8 is the surgery theatre in the Emergency Wing (left corridor) — the late-shift gauntlet. The 45-second surgery clock alone would be tight; combined with randomised tool layouts (re-rolled every shift) and overlapping hazards like fire events and fainting patients, Room 8 is the room most likely to convert a good run into a write-off. The marquee threat is the Surgery Monster (Tendril).

The Staff Only Room is the restricted-access lounge where Dr. Harlow retreats between shifts.
