Sad Paula Abdul’s Tragic Doggy Demise!

Paula abdul ne short

Former “American Idol” judge Paula Abdul’s longtime pet Chihuahua, Thumbelina, died late last month, and she’s devastated by the loss.

She was so distraught she didn’t get out of bed for days afterward, according to pals.

The pet pooch had been Paula’s constant companion for years.

She’d told a friend: “I’m heartbroken. I loved Thumbelina so much! She was everything to me.”

Paula, 53, took to her Twitter page Oct. 28 and wrote: “My precious little Thumbelina — the kindest, sweetest little angel — has gone to heaven … I’m so lucky, grateful & blessed that I got to be her mommy.

“Bless you, Thumbie, my love. I’m gonna miss you.”

Now, they call that puppy love!

Paula’s four pet pooches had always been important, if not always kind, to her. In 2007 she tripped over another Chihuahua, Tulip, and broke her nose!
