Miley Cyrus Memorialized Floyd With New Tattoo

by Alanna Bennett

If you continue to follow Miley Cyrus news you've no doubt heard the story of the April death of her dog, Floyd. It's been a road of public grief for Cyrus, one that many pet owners can relate to on some level, and now she's found another way to remember her beloved dog: Miley Cyrus got a Floyd tattoo.

Floyd died in early April on what Cyrus referred to as the "2nd worst day of [her] life." His death was followed by an entire Floyd-related saga that lets you know just how devoted Cyrus was to her dog. She burst into tears during a Boston stop on her Bangerz tour; her mother surprised her with a new puppy that she then had to find a new home for because she wasn't ready to move on. She also wrote an open letter about the loss:

i keep asking why would the world take my sweet boy from me? a question an infinite amount of mothers before & after me will ask after losing their precious baby… I was Floyd’s mommy. I don’t know when the regret and the guilt will fade… I don’t know if it ever will. I feel like I let my boy down. my job was to protect him & I’m not a person that takes failure lightly. death lightly. love lightly. everything I do I do to the fullest. mostly loving. I love so much and so hard it hurts, so when I lose it is excruciating. [sic]

On top of memorializing Floyd during throughout her tour, Cyrus has now given Floyd a more permanent place on her body.

Cyrus has now adopted another dog, named Emu, but it's clear Floyd won't be forgotten anytime soon.
