Ceres and Pluto are both considered to be 'dwarf planets.' There are roughly half a dozen recognized dwarf planets in our solar system. Pluto, originally recognized as the ninth planet, was 'downgraded' a few years ago from planet to dwarf planet.

No, plutoids are dwarf planets similar to Pluto that orbit out beyond Neptune. Ceres is located in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.
