'We are all given second chances every day of our lives, but we don't usually take them. Then I met Bob.'

James Bowen was a homeless musician, busking on the streets of London to survive. But the moment he met an injured stray cat with ginger fur and big green eyes, his life began to change.

Together James and Bob the cat faced the world - and won. A purrfectly true 'tail' of love and friendship to make you smile!

Bob is an inspiring story that highlights the power of companionship and the transformative nature of kindness in an often challenging world.
