Book Review: A Street Cat Named Bob

A sad day! Bob, the original Streetcat Bob, has left this world and left us all behind. He was at least 14 years old and his owner and human life partner James Bowen must be devastated. So in honor of Bob I am reblogging my original review of the book with the remarkable story of James, a recovering addict and a streetcat named Bob. Do give it read and wish Bob well on his journey onward to the next of his lives.

    I was sad to hear about Bob’s passing, but it’s amazing how our furry companions can change our lives.

      Yes it is. Bob saved James life and James saved Bob’s life. He was a angel in a cat’s body.. his job is done and now he has gone home. That is what I like to think anyway.

    Oh, no! As a cat person who has cared for over thirty cats, some my own and some fosters, I absolutley loved the series of Bob books. He and his person, James, had an incredible connection, and I was moved by their story. Amazing stuff. Sad to hear about Bob’s passing.

      I feel the same way. I loved all the books and it was an amazing story of animal to human connection.

    So sorry to hear this Anne. Our thoughts are with James and all who knew and loved sweet Bob 💜🕊

      I think Bob was no ordinary cat. Did James rescue him or did he rescue James? James has often said Bob saved his life so this will be a heartbreaker for him . Thank you for your comment Xenia. I’m sure James will appreciate your supportive thoughts.
