“I’m so sorry for your loss of Stella. I just lost my cat last week,” one said. Another scribed, “Vanna I was watching Wheel tonight when you announced your sweet fur baby Stella crossed over Rainbow Bridge I’m so sorry for your loss and I know you’re going to miss her so much my prayers are with you and your family.”
