Caterina Scorsone, known for her roles on Grey's Anatomy and Station 19, said on social media that she and her family barely escaped a house fire that killed their four pets.

Caterina, who has three children¡ªEliza, 10, Paloma "Pippa," 6, and Lucky, 3¡ªwith her ex-husband Rob Giles, stated she didn't waste any time bringing them to safety after the incident.
Scorsone uploaded many photos on Instagram on Monday, including one of her destroyed home and others showing the house, her family, and their pets in happier times.
She wrote, "My house burned down a couple of months ago. While getting my kids ready for bed and finishing bath time, smoke began to seep up through the grout around the tub. When I looked down the hallway, a river of thick black smoke had already formed and was filling the house,"
"One thing about fires: they happen fast. I had about two minutes to get my three kids out of the house, and we escaped with less than shoes on our feet. But we got out. And for that, I am eternally grateful."
In her poignant post, she mentioned that her family still grieves for their lost pets.
After recounting the horrific events that engulfed her and her three girls, Caterina appreciated the massive help she received from her loved ones throughout those hard months.
"But we are lucky we got to love them at all. This is not a post about a fire. This is a post about community. This is a love letter to the incredible people that showed up and the incredible ways that they did," Scorsone said.
"Thank you to the firefighters and the investigators (thank you, Trey!) Thank you to my neighbour who answered our frantic knocks at her door. Thank you to the parents at my kids' school who sent toys and books, my friends at @greysabc and @shondaland who sent clothing and supplies, and my sisters who flew in to handle logistics so that I could be with my kids."
Fans aren't surprised by Scorsone's undying devotion to her loved ones. The actress often posts photos of her kids on social media, and her most recent one was on March 21, International Down Syndrome Day.
