Bella’s owner shares emotional message with fans

Bella’s owner shared that she considered Bella her closest companion, explaining their connection began years ago when Bella came to live with them after her original owner died. They described how Bella was always by their side, following them everywhere, and said they’re heartbroken and feel a deep sense of loss after her passing.

I’m just completely heartbroken about losing her, but it’s a little bit comforting to know I’m not alone in my grief – you all are feeling it too. I probably won’t be very responsive for a while, but please know that all your kind messages mean so much to me. Seriously, it means the world.
