BLOOM SHEDS TEARS

However, the weeping did provide him a “cathartic and healing” feeling. Bloom revealed how he’d searched everywhere he could; including under roads.

The search party also included two sniffer dogs who did “their best as well.” He explained how he’d gratefully learned that love was eternal and the “true meaning of devotion” from Mighty.

“MORE THAN A COMPANION”

The star noted how he believed the pet was now looking down on him and “whistling in every back yard.” He felt the dog knew he did his best to respect their bond.

Bloom went on to describe Mighty as “more than a companion” that he had “a soul connection” with. He continued his post by apologizing to the canine, thanking him, and sharing that the dog should rest in peace.

THANKING THOSE WHO HELPED SEARCH

The star also wrote: “MIGHTY HEART my little fellow A[black spade emoji]’s.” He concluded his post by sharing his gratitude to all those who helped him search for the dog.

HONORING MIGHTY

Bloom also thanked Scott Campbell for a new tattoo honoring Mighty. A video shared on the post showed the process of the star getting the tattoo.

BECOMING TEARFUL

Another one revealed how teary-eyed he became after the artwork was finished. The tattoo featured Mighty’s name on the left side of Bloom’s chest with a heart that featured an Ace of spades inside.

PERRY WILL MISS THE DOG

His fiancée, Katy Perry, also shared the tattoo creation video and added her own Instagram caption. She wrote: “We’ll miss our little buddy boy, Nugget’s brother so much.”

MIGHTY LEFT A HOLE IN THEIR HEARTS

The singer added: “Forever a paw shaped hole in our hearts… #ripmighty.” Nugget is Perry’s own dog that looked exactly like Mighty.
