Meet “Big But Gentle” Murray

Meet Murray, a delightful 4.5-year-old Pitt mix who's been awaiting his forever home since March. Though his size might seem a little much, he's truly a gentle giant at heart. Murray is the perfect blend of playful spirit and cozy companion, ready to romp around or snuggle up on the couch for a TV marathon.

Meet Tazz - Who Loves to Purrrrrr

Meet Tazz, an 8.5-year-old tabby cat brimming with personality who has been waiting for a loving home since August. This laid-back fellow is simply on the hunt for a comfy spot to rest his head. While Tazz enjoys his peace, he's also quite the chatterbox, eager to share his many feline opinions.

The two all-stars are microchipped, neutered, and up to date on all their vaccines.

Adopting dogs and cats from the Tuscaloosa Metro Animal Shelter (TMAS) gives homeless animals a second chance at a loving home and a loyal and grateful companion.
