@Chlarie Peace No he was hit by a car after been missed for a couple of days :-( He was brought to to the vet who contacted James to bring him the news that Bob passed away.
Dear Brunhilde - Yours is a very insightful comment about Bob and James. They poured out their love for each other and for us in many ways that I'm still discovering, didn't they? 10/29/2020 Connie
For me, I will ALSO never look at a homeless PERSON in the same way again. Before reading James's books, I had been spontaneously giving away homemade peanut butter & jelly sandwiches and juice I kept with me when out and about to a homeless person. Also I had given money enough to help that person get to a shelter or get a small meal. NOW, THANKS TO JAMES'S HAVING MADE ME MORE AWARE OF THE HUMAN SIDE, I definitely feel more comfortable talking directly to a person, giving the help that I can, searching out answers, and locating additional help if needed. James Bowen gave homelessness a face in that he reminded me we're all in the same " Family of Man" (a book I read in my freshman year. Sidenote: I do give to the ASPCA.).
They saved each other. RIP Bob. As an owner of four cats myself I know how hard it would be to lose them. Animals can teach us a lot. Bless you Bob. Sleep tight 🌈
James bowen inspired me to get sober i also had my best freind ernie the cat sadly he died last year aged 4 he knew he did his job i got sober and had a daughter ill forever remember your story and our 4 legged boys 🐈 😻 🐈⬛️ 😇 RIP BOB 💚 🙏
Rest In Peace Bob, you have touched so many hearts around the world, thanks to James for taking care of him and sharing their story. Let's remember that there are millions of cats just like Bob, waiting for a friend to love, rescue and adopt.
Good afternoon, my name is Steven and I'm from México, I am a huge fan of Bob and James and I would like to ask for your permission to add subtitles for the video in Spanish and post it on my Facebook page "Gatos Gatásticos" (with credits and link to the original video).
Thank you for sharing your and Bob's story, you have the wonderful remembrances of Bob's friendship and his faithfulness which can't be taken away from you . We're all supporting you to live your life so that you can inspire others to rise above difficulties in their life. A truly inspiring real life story.
Condolences to you James. Please stay strong. I am 72 years old and I have always had cats or dogs or both in my life. Let me give you an advice. The only thing what now can help you is to get a new kitten. That cannot be Bob, because animals have different characters as we have. But you can find a total new love. Bob will be always in your heart. God bless you.
AN EMOTIVE TRIBUTE TO START CRYING. TWO HEARTS THAT LIFE MAKE JOIN. JAMES @ BOB ARE JUST ONE. I'' AM SURE SOME DAY THEY"' L BE BACK TOGETHER AT THE END. ETERNITY LOVE FOREVER AND BEYOND. BIG HUG TO JAMES IN THIS SAD MOMENT OF HIS LIFE. IT" S A DIFICULT TIME. BOB WILL ALWAYS LIVE IN OUR HEARTS AND THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS HIS HISTORY THANKS THE BEAUTIFUL BOOKS. DEAR BOB, WE NEVER FORGET YOU FROM NOW UNTIL FOREVER. KISSES WHEREVER YOU ARE.
I am so very sorry about Bob. I hav only learned of Bob in the last hour but in the videos ive watched i feel ive lost a beautiful friend. I am so sorry James. He is beautiful.🐾😿😿😿
I have been so sad about Bob's death. I have shed lots of tears over this cat who I have never met. I have read the books about Bob and James and know how special a cat he was and how much he meant to James. I am so very sorry he is gone.
Me too I am a 41 year old man and I rarely cry but I have been in tears to hear bob the cat is dead. I wonder how he got hit by a cat it’s such a tragedy for a lovely cat. Being street savvy all his life I find it bizarre as he was used to roads, unless a car was speeding fast and bob mistimed the crossing. Anyways I hope James feels better he has probably been over it a 1000 times in his mind
Rest in peace Bob! You were such a handsome and patient cat who healed the past of a street musician on the streets. Thank you so much for being such a presence in our lives and being a constant change. The world will never forget you, our little angel!!
Bob will be around you James far more than you will know. Do him proud by taking good care of yourself. Bob would be upset if you failed him on that. I lost my my beautiful ginger cat, Tig, exactly the same way as you lost Bob. Fast car struck his head and he died instantly. My mother is psychic and often senses him around. He often comes when we talk about food. Take good care of yourself and love to you Tig and Bob the legend🐈❤💐💐💐.
Bob, you were such a beautiful soul. You saved James' life. You brought happiness to so many people all over the world. Thank you for making the world a better place. Rest in Peace Bob, you will be greatly missed ❤❤❤❤
Every Day where i think on Bob its a day where makes me free . This cat is a little cat of hope and freedom. We must bring Bob in all Hearts over the World
James I live in New Zealand on the other side of the world from you, but I cried when I heard of Bob's passing. I believe he was sent into your life to save you and him, and now his job is done it was time for him to depart. James stay strong, as hard as it is dont let Bob down, you both shared a real love story. He will remain in your heart forever. There are many things we dont understand, but it is possible you will meet him again in some future state. Love from David.
JAMES & BOB ARE UNITED FOR A GREAT LOVE. AN INVISIBLE THREAD ARE JOINED THEM FOREVER. NOT EVEN DEATH IS GOING TO SEPARATE THEM FOR ALL THE ETERNITY. SEE YOU AGAIN BOB. THE SONG IS WONDERFUL. KISSES FOR JAMES. KISSES FOR BOB.
Bob is truelly one of God's angels who came to love, and help James. God bless Bob. James stay strong, there will be another cat who will find a place in your heart to love you again. My cat James, who is a ginger and white cat, who came into my life for a reason in 2015, to adopt me, I struggle with a lot of health issues and we are best friends. He cheers me up every day. Cats are amazing in how they can choose those they want to be with and often love those with health issues and are on there own. God bless all cats they are the best. 😃🐈🐱💝💞
Bob, you died too soon. You were an angel who healed the heart and soul of a good man who needed it. My heart goes out to you James and if I could I would give hugs. I love you Bob, I love you James. You too made the world a better place and touched my heart in ways that words wouldn’t give it justice.
Bob cat and James are all angels of Jesus father, no persecution and adversity can break you up, you will be together, your beautiful story will continue ,Love you, Jesus loves you two
If you think 1 + 1 are 2, you don't know Bob and James. They'll always be one. That how selflessness is. They're mates -- there for each other. It's that simple and plain.
James, your ability to compose music is stunning. I'm so glad you're pursuing your long-cherished dream. Bob would love these "chill" pieces ("Angel's Rush" and "And Then Came Bob"), wouldn't he? Prayers your way and Loving Kindness.
Help the homeless & people living on the streets by just saying hello & asking if they are hungry. Buy them a sandwich or one lot of chips & can of pop, one day it could be you in that situation being ignored & having to sleep in door ways. James was lucky to have his fury friend & companion the beautiful soul Bob the cat. I was devestated to learn he'd died. May he rest in peace with all the rest of the fur babies in catty heaven. Take care of yourself James we are all thinking of you..Bob is forever in our hearts ❤❤❤ 🍪pocket.
4 years ago today you left this earth but your spirit lives on and you steadfastly remain in everyone's hearts especially your beloved James. With greatest respect and admiration you're missed very deeply Bob.
Bob, a cat sent from heaven to save lives crossed the Rainbow Bridge and returned home. Bob brought out compassion and sacrifice and love for another. It always stays with me that James spent his meager earnings to make sure Bob was fed. Some of us don't have families and we say we're here for our cats but I believe it's the other way, our cats hold on for us. Bob chose James because James needed purpose for a different path. R.I.P. Bob, now you'll never run out of thinks to knock off the counter. 💕
Bob was truly a special cat, but it took James to bring that out in him. I do so hope James is doing well, Bob would want it that way. James did a kindness to Bob, helping him recover and giving him a home. In return Bob gave James his everlasting devotion.
Dear pink 14, please be gentle with yourself as you grieve. Each person grieves differently. Bob's spirit is still with James. He's not here on the physical level, but God willing, they are inseparable: soulmates forever. I'm so grateful I could witness their love by videos and read about it in James's own books. God sent me a miracle and a needed makeover. Thanks Bon and James!
Bob cat gone...😭😭😭💔💔..can't stop crying...Soo sorry for James!!..hope, he's got much support by his friends!.. RIP, Bob, you wonderful cat!.. 🐈🌈 2006 - 15.06.2020
