When you "buff" his shell you should try using Turtle Wax!
Good morning!! Tiptoe is so adorable and you are such a great mama to him Caitlin. I hope your foot gets better.
He shuffles his feet as he walks. So cute.
I also heard it. So cute.
Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle .😂❤
Tiptoe:"You should see me on a slow day..."🤪
Tiptoe was moving pretty quick on this day 😎 I hope he reaches 122 years old lol
You mean 22?
Good morning, Tip Toe Caitlin and God Bless....😊
Caitlin, have you been able to check into the cactus pads for Tiptoe? Someone commented on the post I made about them and said you can get them from some place called Sprouts, idk haven't checked it out. ????? Thank you for the video ❤
Yes! There’s a store by me that sells them without the spines!! I’ll have to pick some up this week :)
Caitlin, we're not stupid! Anyone can tell that statue on your steps is not a real tortoise!!! And that man next to his car staring at his cell phone was rude, he didn't even say good morning to Poor Tiptoe!!! 🥰
He's definitely enjoying the shade on his walk good morning tiptoe and Caitlin from Ohio
A nice morning dip in the pool then on to hearty breakfast. Way to go tiptoe😊
He knows how to live 😎
The shelled one must be loving this heat!
The “shelled one”….. lol😂😂
Tiptoe is so beautiful .. i love turtles they are so intelligent and happy go lucky . They make my heart smile .. God bless you and tiptoe 🥰
Tiptoe is living his best life. You take such wonderful care of him. ❤️🔷❤️👍🏻🌹
I love his smile😊
Good morning Caitlin and tiptoe
It's tough owning a human
It's mighty considerate of Tip Toe to take Mom on a walk, she'd probably just sit around and watch TH-cam videos all day if he was so insistent she needs to get out and get her daily exercise in
Would Dr. Martin's combat boots work? Just thinking out loud. Lol So much love and respect from Minnesota. ❤🐢✌
Oooo I’ll try these first, I used to have a pair and they are toughhhh
It's great to see all this enrichment for him! I love seeing the reactions of the people that see him on the walk! He is quite the celebrity and he takes it all in stride, definitely slow and steady!!❤👍😉🐢
💕💕
Good morning Tiptoe an Caitlin.😊
Gm Caitlin/Tiptoe, great to see yall...😊
W/❤ From Maryland
Caitlyn, I find your dedication to Tiptoe so heartwarming. Your videos are a joy to watch. Thank you!
Good morning! He is SO BIG!?❤
Massive!!!
Hey Caitlin! Do you remember Krystle Lynn asked help for our baby tortoise? I’m her daughter
too cool, tiptoe getting in his steps
Now that's a good idea. I wonder if a people pedometer would work. 😂 Just as a curiosity to see how many steps is a good baseline. I don't imagine he gets a lot of cardio. 😂😂
requesting todo a live shell cam from tiptoe hope this is a possibility
Loving the tortoise cam view from his back!
Tiptoe up bright and early eating well and moving. Great job by mom and God Bless all the people and animals on the Earth!
When TipToe sleeps he dreams of his mom, grandma, and grandpa because they love him so much and he feels the same. He can't wait to see mom in the mornings. However, he might be confused because mom doesn't look as big to him as when he was little. ❤
tiptoe sure likes to explore new places
Good morning Tiptoe and Caitlin! Have a blessed day! 🐢🌸🌺🌻🌼🥳
He’s such a handsome boy 🧡 but what about his bedtime routine? We know his morning routine so I think it’s time we get to see what he does before going to bed. Also do you think he’d still be interested in fruit if it’s dehydrated or freeze dried?
Your Tiptoe shoes. 😂😂 . But you weren't kidding!! Besides your redirecting, it's like he bulls-eyed your feet for a moment there 😊
A STUBBORN TORTOISE 😂. Who knew
Tiptoe was a great boy today. ❤
Tiptoe looking good, is the concrete ever too hot for his feet, especially with the rising hot temperatures 🍓🐢....👱♀️💕
It can be! We make sure to get him out before it heats up too much
Definitely need more tip toe cam 🐢🐢💚
He is one lucky dude!!! I am so impressed with your knowledge and compassion.
Tiptoe surely knows his neighborhood..
He walks with such a swagger..
Love you big T....❤
Just a dog in disguise. :)
He really had some speed at times
The video is sped up in a few places. But he does get around quite well. It's impressive!! ❤
Beautiful day to you tiptoe and catlin.
If you have a boot barn in your area they have some women’s steel toe
Thank you for the love on my original comment.
What a life for a tortoise!
Do tortoises have taste buds?
Yes!
These vids are good for the blood pressure.....like watching fish swim in a tank......

Dog: can I sniff your bum?
Tiptoe:. Come back to my pool, I'll give you something to sniff
puppy💕
Caitlin, had a different tortoise owner’s vid. I must say there is no one like you. I know you have a background in teaching, so you have a leg up on most, but your vid’s of Tiptoe is much more entertaining. I do have a couple questions to ask. Since Tiptoe is a desert animal, why do you need to check the heat of the pavement? Also, do you feel Tiptoe understands voice commands? Great visiting with you and Tiptoe as always. 🐢
Hi Caitlin I’ve been watching Tiptoe and Yourself from the UK and I love the videos in fact it’s very relaxing to watch him..😀
Tip is gangsta...I love his neck protector and leg armor. I think some of the neighbors know Tip is a flower lover...keep off Tip!!🥰
Hi Caitlin, have been meaning to send you a message (the family have become big fans of your channel), but have been putting it off (figured you could offer some insight). Am contacting you on behalf of my parents, who have a Sulcata Tortoise like Tiptoe. My father bought him at an animal show, without really realizing what he was initially investing in lol. He’s still technically a baby (only 4 years old), and only weighs about 17 lbs, though is growing quickly. Being from Northern Illinois, the weather is not consistently ideal year round for this specific type of tortoise (only 3-4 months out of the year where the weather is conducive). Right now we keep him inside in a large climate/temperature controlled living space, but due to his growing size, is becoming more of a concern. He has become a part of the family, but with my parents being older, and will not be able to properly care for an animal that has the potential to grow to almost 200 pounds (especially in an area that sees some pretty harsh winters), I was just curious, considering your knowledge and connections, if we decided to re-home him, what steps would need to be taken (agencies we could talk to, etc.)? We’ve looked into a number of avenues, but have not been able to make any headway with finding someone (or somewhere) we feel comfortable with. Thanks in advance, and keep up the good work.
We Love you Caitlin. From Texas.oohh yeah and Tiptoe.👍
Steel toed cowboy boots!
Does Tippy ever dig? Some male sulcatas dig huge holes!
I don't know how I stumbled upon your channel, but I'm loving every minute of it! Tiptoe is awesome, and you take such good care of him! Looking forward to learning more about you and Tiptoe. Thank you!
I cannot stand how freaking cute he is!! This boy makes my day! Love you guys!! ❤❤
He’s so neat! About 18 years ago I met a female. Lily. I’m thinking she was about 7 to 10 years then. I’m guessing she near 30 now! She’s got her own outdoor habitat with a babbling brook and pond! But she still sleeps in the house at the foot of the bed! She has spineless prickly pear fruit, apple, peach, and pear trees. She has her own garden with several different types of berries, lettuces and other garden greens and herbs! They also have a nice greenhouse that keeps her stocked up on fresh produce year round and also houses 10 hibiscus bushes and other nectar-ricious blossoms for her yum-yum pleasure! She also has an avocado tree and banana tree that produce all year round hidden in there! She’s very friendly! And she enjoys a good scratchen session with a hand broom! It’s all I do when I’m visiting! Very cool!
Sometimes when i take my dog for a walk, he'll just decide hes done. Im fortunate my dog is little and i can carry him. But does tiptoe ever just go "nah" halfway through a walk and refuse continue? If so, how do you get him back home? Sorry if the question has been answered.
Caitlin, soooo adorable is Tiptoe ❤❤❤ He has a smile on his face while walking, so cutttteeee ❤❤❤. I have a Pitbull too and she is 13yrs old and cherish every moment with her ❤ 💕 Joan
When he's walking in the street, you ought to affix one of those orange "slow moving vehicle" triangles to his rear! That may help prevent an "Obstructing Traffic" citation, or no drivers license in possession, or no license tag displayed. He is a "farm animal" sharing the use of the roads just like an Amish horsey pulling a wagon. Since "Toe" is so strong, perhaps you could fashion a carriage for him to pull you around in, if the cop doesn't believe he is a work animal. At least carry a photo of him pulling a tiny kid in a wagon.
Any Magnesium with that Calcium? Are you going to add some spa jets to that pool? Asking for a "friend".
Hey what's up Caitlin? Your big boy is awesome! How much does he eat on a daily bases? Does he recognize you? We are from the New England area and my Aunt has a foot and half long tortoise Tommy who is close to 60 years young :) (My aunt got him when she was only a 4 year old little girl ). Do you have any other animals? We have large breed dogs and horses on the property to enslave us all year around .... .
🐢❤️ hi mr tiptoe Caitlin❤️🐢mr tiptoe having a nice soak and then yummy time 🐢🥬
He’s been with u for 21 years .. yet he’s still trying to bite ur red finger nails off 😂 n don’t know the difference yet ?????!! 😂
Hi Caitin,
I have been watching some of your videos they are very pleasant and entertaining.
Also your tortoise appears to be in perfect health. That is not easy to do with reptiles unless you know what you are doing and are very careful.
Have you considered using a tortoise cam to get some turtles eye view shots. Your friend looks like a perfect platform for a Go Pro?
Just a suggestion.
What an amazing creature... Unreal world man ...
Have you heard of the TH-cam channel Snake "Discovery? They are real herptolgists b ut just love tortoises!! They have a salcata named Sharon and she has the run of the retail store, the reptile zoo, and the warehouse.
Greetings I enjoy your videos and have so much respect for how well you take care of him. Are tortoises solo animals?
Do they need or enjoy companionship,
That was such fun! Sorry you didn’t include the parts with people talking to him.
Redwing boots are the most comfortiable from day one. just an idea...
I love him, watching you two makes me so happy, Thank You for sharing him with us 💕💙
He was on a roll this morning. Walking tall.
:) so cute.
Love your braid too.
This boy can really truck when he sets his mind to it. Looks like a lot of people stop to chat with him. I know I would if he lived near me. I think he's cool. I wonder what he would actually weigh, and how much his shell weighs. Thank you for sharing him 🥰
you put the calcium on top of the grass, then spill the grass upside down from the bucket so the calcium is on the ground with the grass lying on top?
You should look into Photogrammetry to get a 3d scan of his shell (and maybe of him if he can hold still for video or many photos). You could do this every year and see how his shell grows/changes in 3d over time.
2:10 "sometimes there's just a little bit of excitement and we need some re-routing." The story of my life. Hurray for Tiptoe!
Your videos are so cool. you have loved him since he was a little boy. into a giant. and you still love him. thank you for the great videos
Every time you feed him I get worried he is going to bite your hand. Is his bite strong like a snapping turtle?
The both of you are so cute, luv you guys and keep on walking and eating!
Have you ever tried using an utensil like a tong when feeding Tiptoe to avoid your fingers being part of the meal?
Dose tip toe make any sounds like barking or something? Can he swim in deep water?
Hi Caitlin, yes I would agree for your feet, steel capped boots are a most, to rotect your toes.
I swear that I can see that his Shell is growing and the overall shape is different!
Shine guards that soccer players wear. Can help.
Bless his heart.. Tiptoe really seems to enjoy his walks!😊❤
I wondering does tiptoe can alive 20 years longer?
Tiptoe is the cutest boy ; I love seeing him take his walk.❤❤
How do you safely pick tiptoe up to bring him to the vet?
Does Tiptoe really show happiness? Can you tell ?
MR T NEEDS A BUFFING 🤙 his the man
Hello Tiptoe. Always got a smile on your. face
I have fish tanks 🐠 so cool love you’re tortoise 🐢
Do you ever walk Tiptoe with the dogs?
Highlight of my day! I so love TpToe.
He runs to get his food!🎉😂🎉
This is the first time i saw ur video... and thats so sweet.
Get a pair of doc martens those will help
little devil never stops eating does he
My turtles name is tiptoe to but hes a box turtle
Tiptoe you and me are the same. Im slow too
I would love to encounter Tiptoe on the streets. In Deutschland btw. bräuchte sie wohl eine Leine um mit der hochgefährlichen Schuldkröte herumzulaufen.
Caitlin your so beautiful
Can you use a harness or stick to steer him?
