What a wonderful idea - the thought that they saved one another, that Bob loved and cared for him when no one else gave a rat's a**; and he spent his last dime on medicine for Bob, by caring for someone else he learned to care for himself because he knew Bob was depending on him. Just a terrific idea. Love can do anything; Love can change the world.

Just read the first book. It was such a worthwile read. My cat also "adopted" me. He sat under my window one night. He was dirty and very skinny. I had been wishing so badly for a blue british short hair but didn´t have the money. He was a BKH blue/white mix. He slept in my arm the very first night. When I had him chipped he sat on my arm. The Vet could not believe it. Sadly after 2,5 yrs. he died at approx 4,5 yrs from a bad cat virus which broke out. But as James said "Cats adopt people". So I am thankful for the time I had with the coolest and most friendly cat ever. An animal can change soooo much! Good luck to James&Bob and to everyone who takes care of an animal. Love Christina

The book has changed so much about the way I think and see things. I love my cats ten times more than I did, which I never thought possible. I used to think that people busking were just students or whoever trying to earn a little extra cash. Now I see it as their livelihoods. And I never really knew anything about the big issue. I'm ashamed of myself for the way I used to see things. I'm also more grateful to my parents than ever because without them I would be struggling to survive.

C Gray that's what melted me to James when reading the book, that he spent almost all his money, literally, to heal bob and do a good one for him. Certainly I think James couldn't have really cared well for Bob if he himself hadn't already been trying to work his life over, being on methadone and in a house by when he found bob, and I wonder if James realizes this, but I certainly love how they helped each other flourish

"Bob: No Ordinary Cat" is the first book. They are the same story as the "adult" novels without some gruesome details. For instance in the original book "A Street Cat Named Bob" he goes into quite a bit of details about Bob's injuries but in "Bob: No Ordinary Cat" he just talk about how Bob was hurt without describing every single wound. It's not a detail you need to understand the story. He just cleans it up so it is more suitable for young adults to read. In "A Street Cat Named Bob" there is some detail about food odors coming from a neighbors apartment and his description of the way the person was dressed is different. He mention those but not how dirty the clothes appeared. Just grubby details. With feeding Bob in "A Street Cat Named Bob" he specifically mentions feeding Bob Tuna and Milk and neither are good to feed a cat so he changes it to some nibbles or somethings that is true without teaching people it is OK to feed then such things by example. He did not know it was OK then and did not want younger people to think it was OK do to so like he did with Bob. The essential story about Bob and James is the same in either versions. Be it "A Street Cat Named Bob" or "Bob: No Ordinary Cat" and the same for "The World According to Bob" and "For the love of Bob". Same story different words in some places.
