Who is Barney in Animal Hospital and how do you deal with him?
Question 3 of 21
A
Barney is one of the most dangerous anomalies in Animal Hospital Anomaly. He appears as a white rabbit-like creature wearing a brown hat, mustache, and plaid pants. Barney starts as a seemingly harmless customer asking for coffee, but his requests escalate over time from favors to dangerous demands like asking for a surgical scalpel.
How to Deal with Barney:
- 1. Early Interactions: Comply with his initial coffee requests to keep him calm
- 2. Time Management: Never make him wait over 120 seconds - he becomes aggressive
- 3. Final Confrontation: When Officer Duckman arrives with a wanted poster, choose between:
- Report Barney (press E): He attacks the officer and destroys a camera before fleeing
- Stay silent (30 seconds): Officer leaves, Barney rewards you with an extra coffee machine
Critical Tip: Barney is unpredictable and can turn violent quickly. Always keep an eye on his mood and be prepared to hide or confront him depending on your playstyle.
