\u201cRuby. I knew this day would eventually come, but it doesn\u2019t make it any easier. My sweet Ruby has crossed the rainbow bridge. I’ve had her for so many years that I\u2019ve truly lost count. We have been through SO much together , and through everything, she has remained the exact same: the sweetest little angel snowball. Everyone loved her !! I was doing a TV segment at the East Valley Shelter a very long time ago. She was the dog they had me hold. I went home that night and couldn\u2019t get her out of my mind, so I went back the next day and adopted her. The best decision I ever made . The more pets we have , the more we go through this familiar pain, but it\u2019s an honor to give these dogs the best life possible because that\u2019s all that matters,\u201d she captioned her post.<\/p>\n

The comment section was filled with comforting messages from fans and fellow celebrities offering their condolences.<\/p>\n

This includes Mean Girls<\/a> star Lacey Chabert saying, \u201cI\u2019m so sorry. Sending you the biggest hug.\u201d<\/p>\n

Comedian Whitney Cummings left an emotional message saying, \u201cHoney. I love you<\/a> so much. She was the luckiest diva on earth and the way they change us us forever.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fans and followers filled the comment section with sweet words, sending Cuoco lots of hugs, especially during this difficult time.<\/p>\n

The Flight Attendant star adopted Ruby in 2014<\/a> during her visit to an animal shelter in Los Angeles for a shoot with E! News.<\/p>\n

“This one starred in our @enews segment and I couldn’t get her off my mind,” she posted on her Instagram, adding, “So I went back and got her. Welcome to the family, Miss Ruby!!! Thank u west valley animal shelter for keeping her safe!”<\/p>\n

Beyond being a dog mom, Cuoco is a dedicated animal advocate and rescuer.<\/p>\n

The actress transformed her scenic 40-acre ranch in Thousand Oaks<\/a>, California, into a rescue center not just for dogs but also a sanctuary for animals like horses, goats, pigs, cows, donkeys and more.<\/p>\n
