Carla Abellana mourns the death of her adopted dog, Wing

By Aedrianne Acar

Kapuso primetime star Carla Abellana was utterly devastated after the death of her adopted dog, Wing.

In an Instagram last week, the Love of My Life lead actress was emotional after what happened to her fur baby.

Carla shared, “My heart is broken again. And this time it has shattered into tiny pieces.

“These are the last photos I took of WING. He was being extra sweet this morning. I had no idea those were to be his final moments.

“Please say a prayer for my WING? And for his sister, Fly, who is starting to get depressed right now.”

In a separate post, Carla detailed what happened before they had to rush Wing to the veterinary clinic.

According to the animal welfare advocate, she was busy helping and attending to another owner's pet dog who needed surgery and medication.

“Just this morning I paid for the surgery and medication of a Chihuahua mix from Bohol to help save him. His owner didn't have enough money to have him treated and I couldn't say no to helping them out. Thank goodness he survived and is now back home.

“Little did i know that hours later I would rush my own WING to the Vet to try to save him as well. Except this time i wasn't able to. I failed.”

“Why is it that I am able to help save other animals and not my own, Lord?

She is also worried about Wing's sister, Fly.

“I'm trying to find comfort in his sister, Fly, making sure she doesn't get confused or too lonely without her brother. They were inseparable, you see. That's why i adopted them together.”

Carla even listed down the things she will miss most about her loyal friend, Wing.

“While i try to apologize to and comfort Fly, who keeps hiding in the corner of the living room or under our bedroom sofa, I fall asleep while crying on Wing's bed, with his favorite pillow.

“Who's gonna be greeting me first thing in the morning when I wake up? Who's gonna wait for me to open my eyes before he comes stretching his way from his bed to mine to give me a morning kiss?"

Several celebrities sent their condolences to Carla via Instagram like Mikael Daez, Benjamin Alves, and Sofia Pablo.
