A Gift from Bob

From the day James rescued a street cat abandoned in the hallway of his sheltered accommodation, they began a friendship which has transformed both their lives and, through the best-selling books A Street Cat Named Bob and The World According to Bob, touched millions around the world.

In this new story from their journey together, James looks back at an early Christmas they spent on the streets and how Bob helped him through one of his toughest times - teaching him the true meaning of Christmas and bringing home to him in how many ways Bob has saved his life.

A gift to remember

A great Christmas story. It warmed my heart and gives me hope that all is well with James and Bob. Still would love to meet them both, perhaps one day when I go to London.
