Dick Van Dyke Returns Home for 99th Birthday After Fleeing Wildfires and Reveals His Missing Cat Bobo Was Found Safe
The feline had gone missing while the legendary actor and his family were heading to safety
Dick Van Dyke has got one birthday wish crossed off his list the safe return of his cat Bobo!
A family friend of the entertainer, Laura Johnson, revealed on Instagram that Bobo escaped while Van Dyke and his wife Arlene Silver evacuated from their home in Malibu, Calif. earlier this week due to wildfires that raged nearby.
Our thoughts were with Dick, Arlene and their sweet animals this week as the Franklin Fire raged through their neighborhood in Malibu and the Van Dykes had to evacuate, just days before Dicks 99th birthday, she wrote in the post, alongside an old photo of Van Dyke and his wife cheerfully tapping their toes during an interview for the Kennedy Center Honors in 2021.
She added that the couple was finally able to return home again and be reunited with their cat Bobo (who escaped as they were evacuating! And thankfully waiting for them upon their arrival back).
