Anniston continued, "Independent in the most gorgeous way, cares for everyone even if she doesn’t know you. Terrified of dogs even though I’ve never known her NOT to have at least two of them ☺️ Fiercely loyal to the end." 

As the fans later guessed the description matched both Cox and her 'Friends' character Monica, the 'Murder Mystery' star continued, "She’ll redecorate a room like nobody’s business. Spot a smudge on a window from a mile (literally) away. She doesn’t care what other people think!! 👏🏼👏🏼 I can’t imagine a world without her. It’s one of my great honors to call her one of my best friends for life…"

She concluded her post by adding the customary birthday message, "Happy happy birthday CC. I love you! ❤️."

Needless to say, the birthday girl loved the special wish from her friend and once co-star, as Cox gushed, "Wow well I’m in tears 😭. Thats the sweetest thing I’ve ever read. I love you so much. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️."
