The fires in Los Angeles CA were heading in the direction of the home where Tik Tok sensation Tip Toe, the 175 pound tortoise lived with his human, Caitlin.
Below is the video Caitlin took as the billowing smoke from the fires ominously filled the skies near her home and the family had to make an hasty escape from the advancing flames.
Sadly, Caitlin's childhood home was engulfed by the fire.
It was also the only home Tip Toe had known since he was a little box turtle given to 7 year old Caitlin as a Christmas present.
Thankfully Caitlin and her family and Tip Toe are safe, far away from the conflagration.
A lot of people have lost their homes and lives have been lost to the fire as well.
But the news that Tip Toe was in danger from the raging fire was almost more than I could stand to hear.
I'm glad Tip Toe and his human family are safe.
