Hot dogs, cool cats: Adoptable pets from Tuscarawas County Humane Society Animal Shelter

Chonky Boy, a 2.5-year-old black cat, is among the cats available for adoption at the Tuscarawas County Humane Society Animal Shelter, 1432 Tall Timber Road NE in New Philadelphia. He was brought in as a stray. He has very chubby cheeks that he likes scratched. He is a sweet boy that does well with the other female kitties in his adoption room. He takes a second to adjust to the other males, but does well with them after a few days.

Doritos, a 1-year-old Pit Bull Terrier, is available at the Tuscarawas County Humane Society Animal Shelter. She was brought in through the humane officer after living in a crate in a barn for the first year of her life. She was terrified when she was brought in and would sit and cower in the corner of her kennel. After a month of being here she wants to curl up in staff's laps for cuddles and hugs. She does well with other dogs, and the humane society can cat test her for an approved application. Adoption hours at the shelter are 1 to 4 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, and 1 to 7 p.m. Tuesday. Shelter is closed Thursday. The phone number is 330-343-6060 and the website is www.tuschumanesociety.com.
