Hi Michelle, thanks for posting this. Gosh that's sad news. What a special cat he was! I wasn't that familiar with his story but a few years ago, maybe two or three, I was watching a couple of clips about him on YouTube. Your posting of this remiinded me. I'm saddened to hear of his passsing too.
What a special cat he was. I'll track down the fiilm. Thanks again Michelle.

I just read he escaped from the house and was hit by a car, terrible, apparently he had kidney disease and was having treatment but still I would think that he would have been in an enclosure probably more to this than meets the eye.
What! Oh man, how the heck did that happpen? Who was supposed to be looking after him? I was wondering why there wasn't anything about what he died of in the articles I read. Gosh sad news even more!

Yes I just read before that he was killed by being hit by a car. Nothing was said about him escaping his enclosure. His human was calling him to come inside as he is usually inside of a night time and sleeps on his humans bed. Think it was at least a day or more before the vet called advising that Bob had been killed. James has been walking everywhere looking for him and calling everywhere. Apparently a passerby found Bob and took him to the vet, they were not the driver of the vehicle that hit him. James is absolutely devastated that Bob has died this way, he expected him to be around for a few more years. Such a sad way to lose a pet. He will probably blame himself so he needs our sympathy not more negativity
Poor James Bowen. Bob his friend (rather than pet) helped him through such a tough time. Bob was a gift from God. I can imagine how devastated he must be. When my cat died I was devastated. Perhaps the driver didn't even know he had hit something.
