Meet Marissa

Meet our gentle soul and ultimate relaxation enthusiast! She's a delightful couch potato who finds more joy in a Netflix binge than a brisk walk. If her walks stretch beyond her liking, don’t be surprised when she stages a playful protest by plopping down for a rest. All she truly needs is a serene spot to rest her head and enjoy her favorite shows.

Meet Loki

Meet our sweet but bashful little buddy! Loki is a large 6-year-old domestic shorthair orange Tabby. This charming fellow would feel most at ease in a cozy home with feline friends, as dogs might scare him. He is the KING of hide-and-seek, but with a loving family to shower him with daily affection, we're sure he'll blossom and let his true personality shine.

These adorable pets are spayed or neutered and are up to date on vaccines and microchipped.

For details about adoption, please get in touch with TMAS at (205) 752-9101 or visit www.metroanimalshelter.org
