A STREET CAT NAMED BOB And How He Saved My Life

Want another story about a cat wandering into someone's life and becoming part of the community? James Bowen's story fits the bill, and is always engaging. Just know it's not sentimental. Bowen is a former heroin user who once spent as much time on the streets as Bob. His community comprised the busy Londoners who stopped to meet Bob as Bowen busked for change. That said, listeners can track the growing bond between cat and human—and Bowen's life changes—in Kristopher Milnes's voice. Miles tells the story as he would to a mate, with ease and friendliness. Listeners should give both Bob and Bowen the same chance the pair gave each other. J.A.S. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2014]
