Cookie ready for forever playmates and family
WICHITA COUNTY (KFDX/KJTL) — One sweet furry friend from the Humane Society of Wichita County is ready to find her forever playmates and family.
Meet Cookie! This fun-sized one-year-old girl is playful and sweet as can be.
'Wayward Kin' to premiere at Archer City's Royal Theater
She has plenty of energy, as she is still young, but Cookie would do great with other dogs, as she loves to play, and she would do great with children, too.
While she is still a puppy, shelter staff assume she will only grow another couple of inches, staying relatively small.
If you are interested in this adventurous girl or any of her other friends at the HSWC, contact them at (940) 855-4941.

Golden Retriever's Pure Excitement Over Seeing Friends at Day Care Is Everything
Considering just how important socializing our pets is, it's no surprise that some dogs really thrive in doggy day care. If their humans can't be around, they're all about getting in some playtime with other pups and hanging out with their friends. On Thursday, May 22, @cookiethegoldenretriver1 on TikTok shared this footage of the excitement her Golden Retriever has when it's time to see her friends at school. Nobody better get in her way, or they're getting knocked over! Here, we see Cookie right at the door, absolutely losing her mind with how excited she is to get in there and play. It's kind of mind blowing just how fast her little paws are going, trying to get that door. She might be setting a new record or something. Safe to say that day care must be one of her very favorite places. If Mom ever worries about her when she's not around, this must be a pretty reassuring sight to see!While watching the other videos that Cookie's mom has shared on TikTok, it seems like this Golden Retriever doesn't just love her friends hard — she loves her people just as much. For example, she might be a dog, but this is a straight up bear hug that Cookie is giving her kid! There's truly nothing better than snuggling with your pup, especially if your dog loves hugs like Cookie does, so I know her kiddo must have been on cloud nine! And in another TikTok video, Cookie is waiting so patiently by the window for her dad to come home and watching that driveway like a hawk. I can only imagine the happiness that ensues when they are reunited at the end of the day. Cookie has such a big heart and so much excitement to give. Never change, Cookie! 🐶🐾🐾 Golden Retriever's Pure Excitement Over Seeing Friends at Day Care Is Everything first appeared on Parade Pets on May 25, 2025

Cuddle-Obsessed Cats Wins Pet of the Week
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. From a cat that recently turned 24 (112 in human years) to a dog and cat being hilariously scolded for their "bad report card," viral pet stories have brought smiles to our faces this week. But we also love seeing our readers' pets and sharing their stories in our Newsweek Pet of the Week feature. If you want your pet to be involved next week, don't forget to follow the instructions at the end of this story. Winners Cookie and George cuddling together, something they often do. Cookie and George cuddling together, something they often do. Madeline Katan/ @cookieandgeorge/TikTok This week's Pet of the Week winners are the adorable George and Cookie, who found each other and a home after living on the streets of New Brunswick, New Jersey. "They were rescued from a parking lot in New Brunswick in 2021," owner Madeline Katan told Newsweek. George had lived there for eight years, while Cookie, a chronically ill stray, appeared around 2020. Since then, the two have been inseparable. "They have a love fest every day," she said, laughing about how they even "sneak off for a private tryst." The cats' connection has inspired Katan creatively. As an author, she's now envisioning a new project titled Cathattan: Cookie and George Take NYC by Storm. Though still in its early stages, it's a tribute to what she calls "a great love story—kind of like Cleopatra and Marc Antony, only hopefully with a happier ending." Finalists Dodger the Bassett Hound with his owner. Dodger the Bassett Hound with his owner. Grace Rosales This week's first finalist is Dodger, an 8-year-old basset hound with a big personality and penchant for dancing. "He loves to dance," owner Grace Rosales told Newsweek. But like any star, he has his moods. When he's upset, Dodger puts on his best "Don't look at me" face, a hilarious grumpy expression that captures his sassy nature. Next up this week is Rolo, a 3-year-old Siamese cat with a big frame and even bigger personality. Weighing nearly 20 pounds, he is little brother to 19-year-old Raven and best buds with the neighborhood cat, Rebel. Rolo the 3-year-old cat who has celebrity status.

TJ Rolo thrives on attention, whether he's patrolling the garden for pests, charming shoppers at PetSmart, or showing off his tricks—yes, he knows his left from his right and literally jumps through hoops. A bona-fide "celebri-cat," Rolo has been on TV before, including with the local NBC affiliate and radio station WTMJ. "Rolo is a bit of a ham, always needing attention. He loves spending time with his daddies, as well as hanging out in our yard. It is his job to keep the gardens pest free," owner TJ told Newsweek. Marty the cat taking his supervising role seriously. Marty the cat taking his supervising role seriously. Nancy Monicke Last but not least, this week is Marty, a 5-year-old cat often found supervising the goings-on around the house. "In my apartment there is no privacy and you are never alone. Marty insists the bathroom door remain open so he can "observe and supervise" any bathroom activities," owner Nancy Monicke told Newsweek. Behind the shower curtain, Marty watches like a furry little guardian, completely hidden, until you catch his eyes poking through the folds. He often leaves his owner in stitches. If you think your pet could be next week's Newsweek "Pet of the Week," send us your funny and heartwarming videos and pictures of your pet, along with a bit about them to life@ and they could appear in our "Pet of the Week" lineup.
