Bob transformed my life too...after watching the movie I found two ginger little cats from street... Now I'm happier... thank you Bob and James... Love from Brazil...
RIP Bob. You were an extraordinary cat. Have your books and DVD. You shall be greatly missed by many. May your memory be a blessing. (Condolences to James.)
Louisa Short this video made them so big...in cause of this video(and the cat) a man has become another chance for his live(sry for mistakes,im not good in english)
Literally just jumped on my laptop to find this after literally finishing the book like 5 mins ago now. This is quite possibly one of the best books I've ever read 💜
Just finished reading the book. Made me hug my cat, Apolo, so hard. James, I hope you are okay, and I hope you never use drugs anymore. Love your book!
I'm probably like the billionth comment here to say "I came here after reading the book" lol but wow I mean I knew James described the relationship between Bob and him very authentic...but seeing a actual video of the two and how they look at each other with so much love I now REALLY believe they are truly soulmates haha.
I got James's book as a birthday gift from my best friend & while reading it, tears spattered over the pages as I was turning them but there was laughter too. He's got a beautiful meow-shaped heart and I'm so glad that he and Bob are getting what they so rightly deserve
How can people walk past without stroking Bob! I met them a few times when I worked in Covent Garden and sadly did not know about the book signing. I hope to meet them both again. Amazing story,restores faith in human nature,
Bob e o James mudaram a minha vida também. Hoje eu tenho coragem, força e alegria para lutar dia após dia. E, eu sempre penso em vocês garotos...Muito obrigada!!! BobJames I Love You from Brazil...
I just finished the book - I was sorry it was over. Enjoyed it immensely. For people who think you are abusing Bob. I want them to think how lucky Bob is that he isn't left at home all by himself when you are out working (most days anyway) as other peoples cats are usually. As a result - most cats are not socialized, and do nothing but sleep all day. Think about who the abused one is.
10 years after this film was made...and I'm just meeting Bob for the first time. I'm in love. What an amazing cat, what an amazing relationship. I was also blessed to love a feral cat and have him love me in return. There's just nothing like it. Rest in peace, Bob, you and James will certainly meet again as soul mates in this world or the next. Love you guys >^..^
your experience changed my life....i am a street musician too....and now i have my own BOb ,,,,i would never let him go !! let s rock brother !! from italy!!
Just finished reading your book. It is so beautiful! All the best for you and Bob. Hope to see you one day on the streets of London. :) greetings from Germany!
This is lovely to watch, I've just read his book, and I was in tears reading the pages where Bob was ill/went missing. Its amazing how you can bond with an animal, I have a Rabbit and I've suffered with Depression on and off the past year and I enjoy my Rabbits company more than humans sometimes, least an animal gives you unconditional love and not abuse or anything negative. Bob and James are like James describes in his book, Soulmates. xD
Greetings from Ukraine! Just finished reading the book! I was deeply impressed by this amazing story and I even shed some tears. I am happy that James and Bob have met each other. Hope they are doing fine!
Melli _Chan I think they just didn't want to reveal too much of the plot in the trailers (for which I'm glad cause I hate when trailers say too much). I thought it was a brilliant movie
Finished the book and decided to search, it was so interesting for me OHMygushsh, thanks for such a good book that makes me feel good while learning and understood some values, learn never stop, never give up and I wanna see my this coment after many/some years. They found each other when I was born in 2007. Now 18.02.2024. At 2:18 a.m hello girl you Love you forever❤ your 16 old version❤
I red the book this noon, Bob is a great friend and the present of life, James is lucky with such a friend and leader :-). If you really love cats, they come to you. So I met my first cat Sheila a Birman (rip), she was for 18 years with us and gave us much fun and luck.
when I`m in London I`m a regular Big Issue magazine customer and I really enjoy reading it, so many interesting articles plus you`re helping them. Please get it an do something good then go home or sit somewhere and enjoy reading it and get involved in the big issue .
I read the 1st book, i'm from Argentina. My mom, grandpa and me really love it!! I hope you guys stay together for very very long time. Send kisses to Bob!!
I think the Bob Cat is utterly amazing, and what he has done for James Bowen is absolutely wonderful. I can completely understand Bowen's belief that he would not be where he was if not for Bob. I feel the same about my cats and my dog every single day. This is proof that one animal can make a huge difference in a person's life. All it takes is one purr, one soulful look. Animals know when they are needed, know when they are loved.
Yes James, you and Bob have shared a past life together. And you were brought together again to save each other. Through your journey together, you have changed the world for the better in so many ways. RIP Darling Angel Bob. James, Bob will never leave your side. God bless you and keep you safe ❤️
Just read the book and after finnishing i had to check the videos immediately :) This cat is really amazing and reminds me a lot of my own cat - which looks quite similar to Bob, but female ;) She's maybe not that following, but i took her from another family which not really cared and had also to get her healthy again at first cause she had a really bad leg and needed hard medicin for two weeks. The first few days she never left my feet and followed me the whole time or slept near the heater. Now she is healthy again but loves to stay at home with me. She always gets afraid when a room is closed or she's sitting alone outside my flat. Since i'm a child i have an older male cat too and he has always been like a little baby, but they got used to each other meanwhile and now sleep side by side with me in bed :) such kind of cute! Think not many can really understand what it means when a cat "saved your life" but i do understand when it means the world to you that your cat shows you its whole love and trust, although they are in usual very independent. Wish you both all the best and a happy further time together!!
This cat changed this drug users hopeless life. His busking funds increased considerably and then he started writing books. He got off his drugs and was eventually able to buy his own home. Without Bob, his life would have been much worse.
just read the book after heard about him for years. I feel really sad he is no longer exists by the time time i finished reading. Thanks for the documentary, I got to see how they lived with my eyes. Legendary duo in my heart!
It's such a lovely story! Rest in peace, dear Bob 🕊️ and the best of luck to James! I really enjoyed the book, it is amazing! They really are the best friends!
Just finished reading the book, was skeptical to the book at first, but after reading it I changed my mind entirely, while Watership Down will be my favorite fantasy book, Bob and I will always be one of my favourite real story books, if I ever get to London myself I want to meet them both and just chat really, have a cat myself and the thought that I will one day lose her is driving me to tears even . I just can't imagine how it felt when his cat was scared off both times, Bob really saved him.
I just read the last chapter of the first book and decided to search this video... Thanks to recording this... thanks to make bob a immortal cat in our dreams.... Kisses from Brazil!
A beautiful and UNconditional Love💞 Friendship - between a cat and his Guardian... This short clip was in my feed, today. It was only yesterday, that I learned of this remarkable cat's passing... My heart goes out to You, Sir (Mr James Bowen...)...❤ Bob🐾 was on his Life Mission - to show UNconditional Love💞 to someone that felt (and was, to most people...) invisible... THANKS to Bob🐾, Mr James Bowen got his chance to show the world that we're all here to Love💞 and to be Loved💞 - UNconditionally... to put our own needs and wants aside for another being... When our Love for another runs deep - so does our pain... I sincerely hope that You, Sir have true friends to lean on and help You through this difficult time in Your life... Bob🐾 can never be replaced - yet, I believe that Bob🐾 (in all his infinite wisdom...) wants You to keep an open heart... then (when You least expect it...), You'll have another chance for UNconditional Love💞 to blossom in Your life, once more... R. I. P. Bob... Mission accomplished...🐾💜 💙💛🌹💜🍎🇺🇸
James e Bob queria que soubessem que sua história chegou até mim agora em 2022. Vim logo procurar o vídeo assim que terminei o livro. Que história linda!
I read the book and I believe this is amazing. Especially what is so amazing about the story is that James doesn't realize what a special person he himself not just in that cat's life but in people's thoughts learning from him about love, friendship, respect for each other and awareness for homeless people who are also left without love just because they are not able to receive some in some part of their lives just for any reason. I believe we should be able to give them some love.
I hope this couple will be together for a long long time and I also hope that James realizes how lucky all of us are to have someone like him around us. Thank you James for just being yourself and living your own life. lots of love from Turkey :)
I had a cat just like that. His name was Stuart. All orange. You could position him around your neck like James does. Awfully sweet cats. At the vets, Stu would sit in one seat and I would sit in the other, waiting for the vet and never needed a lead. As we were not in a city or such and of course, came when I called him. Miss him still! Always and forever. June Maine USA
Oh my gosh 🐾💞💋💋💋 so adorable Bob is your Angel He loves yu so" truly beautiful Smiling the whole time watching you God bless you 👍🐾🥰 Big hugs from California USA New subscriber now
Hab gerade in dem buch von diesem video gelesen und es sofort auf youtube gesucht. Einfach wundervoll! I've read from this video in the book right now. I directly searched it here. It's so wonderful ♥
German comment is crossing! Oh. Mein. Gott. Ich habe vor kurzem das Buch fertig gelesen, und wünschte jetzt, es gäbe noch ein zweites. Als dann der Namen dieses Videos im Buch vorkam, musste ich natürlich nachsehen, ob das wirklich stimmt. Und tadaa, ich bin hier! Ich kann das kaum glauben, diese Geschichte über eine Katze, die so treu zu ihrem 'Retter' ist, hat mich einfach umgehauen. Hätte ich James und Bob damals auf der Straße gesehen, hätte ich aus purer Faszination ein bisschen mehr Geld hergegeben. Wunderschöne Story, kann ich da einfach nur sagen …
Read that 1st book from the library, I ordered the 2nd one at the same time but didn't get it, apparently there's a waiting list. If that book is even nearly as good at the 1st I can sure see why. There is obviously a massive worldwide peaceful "army" of devoted Bob-and-James fans of all ages. I love to think that each of these people is making a difference in lives of both animals in need and their people friends.
I saw that guy a couple of times many years ago when I used to buy my Big Issue magazines at Covent Garden when I was selling the Big Issue at Grays Inn Road and later at Wigmore Street in Marylebone.
James Bowen also a wonderful person . Nowadays there are a lot of cases cat/being killed,bullied etc by those who think only humans have the right to stay in earth . I wish someday soon i can meet James Bowen & say thank you to him for treat Bob since he wounded till his last breath . Whenever im listening to Satellite Moment,my tears will slowly come out,realizing Bob has left all of us include his best partner (James)
I'm just about done with this book, and I got to the part in the end where some Spanish speakers mentioned Bob being on RU-vid, now here I am. This is simply beautiful. Never before have I heard of a more brilliant story of true, real-life soul mates. It is so touching. I wish I could meet James and of course Bob. Now, off to finish up the reading!
James&Bob sind klasse ich liebe die Beiden. Obwohl ich(14) noch nie Drogen oder der gleichen genommen habe und auch noch Zuhause lebe denke ich doch das ich einiges mit James (emotional und von der Kindheit her) gemeinsam habe ganz besonders teile ich meine Liebe zu Katzen mit ihm :)
Descansa en paz pequeño Bob, estos días han sido tristes para mí, y tú partida me dolió demasiado porque me acuerdo de que una sola cosa te puede dar motivos para seguir, además de que me haces recordar a mis mascotas. Descansa en paz querido Bob.
