A Street Cat Named Bob
9 journalers for this copy...
When James Bowen found an injured, ginger street cat curled up in the hallway of his sheltered accommodation, he had no idea just how much his life was about to change. James was living hand to mouth on the streets of London and the last thing he needed was a pet.Yet James couldn't resist helping the strikingly intelligent tom cat, whom he quickly christened Bob. He slowly nursed Bob back to health and then sent the cat on his way, imagining he would never see him again. But Bob had other ideas.Soon the two were inseparable and their diverse, comic and occasionally dangerous adventures would transform both their lives, slowly healing the scars of each other's troubled pasts.A Street Cat Named Bob is a moving and uplifting story that will touch the heart of anyone who reads it.
Bought in London, on my way home from Sydney!

Åh Bob! Så himla fin katt, ser fram emot att läsa den! Tack snälla för det fina paketet, blev jätteglad.

I really enjoyed reading about how James saved Bob´s life and Bob James´life. The importance of pets in people's lives should not be underestimated!

Thank you so much for this surprisebook from my wishlist! It brightened up my day, which was otherwise exhausting. Today is literally brighter, because the sun is shining and it feels like spring.

It's incredibly difficult to ignore a cat-related book, so I picked this up at the recycling meet-up in Turku. Thanks, MiuM! :)

A lovely story about the exceptional relationship between a man and a cat. A very sweet story and knowing that it is true makes it even more interesting. This would be an easy read to someone with moderate English skills as well, because the language is quite simple most of the time.

I am sorry but I seem to have no time to read this and I think it is best to get rid of the unread books that are looking at me accusingly from the shelf...
I hope that Sannuli will enjoy this novel!
