NC animal shelter finds forever home for goat, dog duo

WAKE COUNTY, N.C. (WPDE) — An unlikely duo in North Carolina has found their forever home.

Cinnamon the goat and Felix the dog first came to the Wake County Animal Center on March 13 when their owner became unable to care for them any longer, according to a release.

Officials said they were living together at a home in Raleigh when the city's animal control team brought them in for temporary housing.

It didn't take long for their unique friendship to spread all over social media.

The duo will now live out their years together on a local farm.

“I’m so excited they will be living their dream life in Johnston County with their new family,” said Shinica Thomas, chair, Wake County Board of Commissioners. “The Wake County Animal Center has a fantastic rescue network and they focused on the best solution for this pair after getting custody of them. This was the best outcome we could hope for!”

Their new family has plenty of room for dogs and even a small herd of goats that are ideal for Cinnamon.

“We are so grateful for this support from our community and partners,” said Wake County Animal Center Director Dr. Jennifer Federico.
