Two things:
1. Is there a reason why you don't use the "What's this word or phrase" thread?
2. Please give context for your posts. Where did you get this sentence, who is saying it, and what's going on?
In this case タマ is the name of the person's cat. (うちのX is often used for family members and pets).
