Sweet Stella. My heart breaks knowing that your family no longer has their beautiful girl there with them. My eyes filled with tears as I clicked on your precious photos, as I read of your horrific start at life, the unspeakable abuse you were subjected to. My mind cannot comprehend how a human being could be so cruel, so heartless; "discarding" a defenseless, innocent animal by the side of the road to face the most unspeakable of fates. Thank God your family found you in time, providing you with the most caring and loving of forever homes. For 9 wonderful years you blessed their lives with your sweetness, your love and your devoted companionship, and I have no doubt that every moment of your life you knew just how much they loved and cherished you. Your young skin sister especially was so very lucky to have had a first furry sister as special as you; every young person deserves a furry best friend and soul mate as special as you to grow up. My Lab Jingles passed away from liver cancer too, and my heart goes out to your family, knowing how difficult it is lose a beloved furkid to that dreadful disease. I hope knowing that you are patiently waiting for them there at the Rainbow Bridge, along with all of our beloved fur angels; knowing that one day in the distant future you all will be reunited, brings them some comfort. In the meantime, you live on in their hearts, in all of the cherished, priceless memories they hold in their hearts. Bless you beautiful, sweet Stella, and heartfelt thanks to your wonderful family for bringing such happiness and peace to your life.
