About this listen

Best friends James Bowen and street cat Bob have been on a remarkable journey together. In the years since their story ended in Bob: No Ordinary Cat, James, with Bob's help, has begun to find his way in the world. Along with the adventures and the fun there have been tough times, too, but through moments of real danger and sometimes illness Bob has always been there as James' protector and guardian angel. For the Love of Bob is the incredible story of James and Bob's life-saving friendship, and the lessons James has learnt from his street-wise cat.

This book brings joy and happiness. Animals are wonderful creatures and the fact that Bob helped turn around someone’s life is beautiful. I didn’t want it to end! Everyone should read this lovely story especially with all of the sadness we see everyday with homeless people on the streets. Diane

A heartfelt story that lingers in you heart

An animal lover myself who has gone through her share of difficulties, I recommend this book to anyone who has a heart. It will make it swell with the love between a man & his cat and the possibilities it opens up.

I haven't read the book 'A street cat named bin' and was a bit disappointed when I didn't find it in audible (maybe it's just my terrible searching skills). But this book is (what I have imagined as) the story of Bob and James and it couldn't be any sweeter.

I can't get enough about Bob. He reminds me of my old cat, Ares. I was homeless once, too, and Ares was right there with me and was the only reason I had to carry on so I know how James feels.

Any additional comments?

This was great. It's just a shorter version of all the fun stuff that James and Bob got up to. I thought there would be some stories that I hadn't heard but I didn't care. I love these stories so much :)

I LOVE BOB!!!!

I have enjoyed all the books about James and Bob. I was so sad to hear Bob passed away. My sympathies to James. Bob has touched so many in such a wonderful way. Thank you for sharing your story.

Another great book

I listened to all the Bob books. I'm not sure which one this one repeats, but it really didn't matter because I enjoyed listening to the stories again. They are so heart warming. The narrator is awesome. I picture him as the author. You can literally hear him smile as he talks about Bob.

Listened to it Twice!
