A Street Cat Named Bob

I love reading, but am struggling with it a bit at the moment because my concentration is so terrible. However, I had no problems reading this gorgeous book by James Bowen.

James documents his journey after meeting a stray ginger cat, who he names Bob. I’m a cat lover anyway, but if I hadn’t have been before, I would definitely have changed my opinion after reading this. He presents Bob as a real character, possessing human qualities like empathy and understanding, as James goes through difficult situations.

I was taken through a whole range of emotions, from love to worry and from warmth to shock, as I read just how awful street performers can be treated. I don’t want to spoil to story if you’re yet to read it, but all I can say is that dogs aren’t the only 'man’s best friend' in the animal world.

If you’d like to see more of James and Bob, you can find videos of them on YouTube, such as the one below.

Have you read this book, or have I encouraged you to pick it up? Are you a cat lover, or do you prefer other animals?
