55 Haywood County Classics

55 Haywood County Classics

Growing up in Haywood County has so many perks, right down to the very little things, the things you tend to forget about and sometimes even take it a little for granted. There is no other place quite like Haywood County and the richness in being a small town, where everyone knows one another. You become familiar with that one traffic light that seems to always be stuck, seeing a tractor on a main back road isn’t anything out of the norm, and turkey’s hanging out near the roundabout on Old Asheville Road around spring/summer months is always funny and never gets old. It’s a little slower and very laid back and that’s just how we like it. We wanted to share with you some of what we consider Haywood County Classics tracing back to childhood favorites that are very much still alive and should be experienced at some point during your stay, because I’m not sure you’ll get this experience anywhere else.

Our hearts go out to all who were impacted by the torrential rainstorm and resulting flash floods caused by Tropical Depression Fred. Especially our Canton and Cruso communities who appear to have received the brunt of the storm and flooding. We know this is a difficult time for everyone. Remember that we are a strong and supportive community who will make it through these difficult times and continue to thrive. If you are missing an animal, we highly encourage you to post it on the Facebook group Finding My Way Home. Please also call the shelter at 828-456-5338, ext 7 to have your missing animal added to our lost and found list so we can be on the lookout for them as well. As resources become available for those in need, please feel free to comment and let those in our community know where they may find assistance. We can’t control the weather. And sometimes life gives us lemons. But let us all work together to turn those lemons into the best dang lemonade we can. We will rebuild. We will recreate. We will continue. Thank you all!! Stay Strong!! #haywoodcountyanimalshelter #newleashonlifeadoptioncenter #haywoodcountync #cantonnc #clydenc #waynesvillenc #maggievalleync #lakejunaluskanc #crusonc #bethelnc #tropicaldepressionfred #flashflood #sendingourlove #pigeonrivernc #cantonstrong #crusostrong #wewillrebuild #makelemonade #lifegivesyoulemons #emergencyshelter #weloveourcommunity (at Friends of Haywood County Animal Shelter) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSufamMpKVe/?utm_medium=tumblr

This July 4th weekend we want to introduce you to a dog whose name you all already know. While the name Fido has become synonymous with the word dog, it first became popular due to Abraham Lincoln’s yellow mixed-breed. The name Fido comes from the Latin word fedelitas, meaning faithful. What is interesting to note is that Fido never actually lived in the White House. When Abraham Lincoln won the presidential election, Springfield, IL erupted into a cacophony of sound in celebration. This included fireworks and the firing of cannons. Poor Fido was scared of the noises and the family thought it would be extremely stressful on him at the capital where there would be constant noise and activity. They made the hard decision to re-home him. They eventually gave Fido to Abraham Lincoln’s long time friend John Roll, along with several requests: Fido was never to be tied up outside alone. He was a house dog and allowed inside. He was not to be scolded for muddy paws (the streets of Springfield with notoriously muddy). And he was allowed to join the Roll family for dinner. In a sad but ironic twist of fate, Fido was also “assassinated.” Not long after Lincoln’s death, Fido approached a drunken man and playfully put his paws on him as was his custom. The drunken man stabbed Fido who later died of his wounds. As you celebrate this July 4th we ask you to be considerate of animals such as Fido, as well as our many Veterans and active military members, for whom Fireworks and other such displays can be a source of trauma.

Half-Tail and Zack have been living at the shelter for around 6 months. They arrived back in January. That is the equivalent of about 2.5 years in an average human lifespan. - It took 8 days to get to the moon and back - It takes about 2 months to climb Mount Everest - It takes about 6 months to walk across the U.S.A. - It would approximately take 7 months to travel to Mars Don’t make these boys wait any longer. They have made leaps and bounds since their initial arrival. All they want is a quiet loving home. For more information on Half-Tail & Zack or better yet, to set up an adoption appointment to meet them, call 828-456-5338, option 2 #haywoodcountyanimalshelter #newleashonlifeadoptioncenter #haywoodcountync #clydenc #cantonnc #waynesvillenc #maggievalleync #lakejunaluskanc #shelterlife #adoptacat #savealife #adopt #catsofinstagram #blackcatsofinstagram #catsrule #ashevillecatweirdos #ashevillenc #buncombecountync #hendersoncountync #hendersonvillenc #jacksoncountync #sylvanc #wcu #unca #cat #animals #pet #longtimers #waiting #blackcats (at Friends of Haywood County Animal Shelter) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQeTKlOJN2U/?utm_medium=tumblr

Zack & Half-tail have been at the shelter since January. These boys have come a long way since they first arrived. They have warmed up to staff and can be very playful and loving, when it suits them. You know, like most cats. We would love for them to be adopted together and have even reduced their adoption fee in hope of that outcome. They need a quiet home with no dogs or little ones scampering about. If you’re a cat savvy person looking for a couple of cat companions, these may be just the two for you. Call Haywood County Animal Adoption Services at 828-456-5338, option 2 to set up an appointment or for more information. Help us find these brothers a new home!! #haywoodcountyanimalshelter #newleashonlifeadoptioncenter #haywoodcountync #clydenc #cantonnc #maggievalleync #waynesvillenc #lakejunaluskanc #buncombecountync #ashevillenc #ashevillecatweirdos #blackcats #adoptacat #adoptapetsavealife #cat #animals #pet #shelterlife #cstsruletheworld #catofinstagram #stepbrothers #catbrothers (at Friends of Haywood County Animal Shelter) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPBrNqgpIR5/?utm_medium=tumblr

Nubbles was feeling enlightened after Catnip Friday yesterday. This gorgeous Manx girl is still waiting on her forever home. She’s sweet as can be but does require a specific prescription food diet. Otherwise she has some painful tummy issues and nobody likes those. She’s lived with another cat before and would probably do well in most home environments as long as it’s not too stressful. And she keeps on her diet. If Nubbles sounds like a good fit for you give the Haywood County Animal Adoption Center a call at 828-456-5338, option 2! #haywoodcountyanimalshelter #newleashonlifeadoptioncenter #haywoodcountync #clydenc #cantonnc #waynesvillenc #maggievalleync #lakejunaluskanc #adoptacat #cat #animals #pets #shelterlife #catsrule #catsruletheworld #catsofinstagram #catnipfriday #catnip #ashevillenc #ashevillecatweirdos #buncombecounty #manxcatsofinstagram #manxcat #specialdiet #perscriptioncatfood #adoptapet #tabbycat (at Friends of Haywood County Animal Shelter) https://www.instagram.com/p/COV79irpWEe/?igshid=lpln1j69zxno
