"You never wanted for anything, you came to us terrified of men and became our Dad's best friend.

"You loved unconditionally and gave everything right up until the end.

"Our hearts are broken and anyone that knows our family count you as part of it. We love you Blondie, go chase them Bunny's darling."

The reality star also admitted that her whole family has been affected by the loss of the pet as she thanked her personal vets for their support.

She added: "As a family we just want to say thank you to Chris and Natasha at @vets4petsuk in Newton Abbot.
