Farewell To Tika The Iggy: The Fashion Icon Dog Leaves A Legacy - BABEOfficial 2025

A Heartbreaking Farewell to Tika

Tika the Iggy, the Italian greyhound who stole hearts with her impeccable fashion sense, has sadly passed away at the age of 14. Her owner, Thomas Shapiro, broke the news on social media, leaving fans across the globe in mourning.

Shapiro shared that Tika had been battling two liver tumors. Following veterinary advice, she underwent surgery to remove them, and all seemed well at first. The operation was successful, and Tika returned home, enjoying her favorite chicken meal that very night.

A Sudden Turn for the Worse

Despite the initial signs of recovery, Tika’s condition changed the next day. She appeared unusually tired and not her usual vibrant self. Initially, it was thought to be a reaction to the pain medication, but it soon became clear that her body was "slowly giving up," as Shapiro emotionally described.

Tika spent her final moments surrounded by her loving family, bringing a sense of peace to her passing.

"Tika was not just a pet; she was a part of our family and a style icon," Shapiro shared with followers.
