"This last week, I lost two of my precious angels- Tinkerbell and Charity," she wrote. "A big piece of my heart is missing. So grateful to have been their Mommy and for all the unconditional love they gave me for all these years. It's amazing the kind of love a dog provides- it's truly a gift from God. ♥️🙏🏼."

Abdul is a proud animal lover and just last month, she adopted a Chihuahua named Nemo from Matchmaker Rescue, an animal shelter in Bakersfield, California. In February, she also Instagrammed a video of herself snuggling with all of her dogs.

"Just call me Dr. Doolittle 🐾🐾," she captioned the video.
