2007年春天，伦敦街头音乐人詹姆斯·波文（James Bowen）与鲍勃初次相遇，当时他正处于人生低谷，竭尽全力想从毒瘾的泥沼中挣扎出来。在看到这只受伤的流浪小猫后，波文决定收养它，开始了一人一猫的生活。

就这样，波文在伦敦街头卖艺或者卖杂志时，身边总有鲍勃的陪伴。

后来，波文还将自己和鲍勃的故事写成了《流浪猫鲍勃》一书，这本书大受欢迎并于2016年被改编成了大家熟知的电影《流浪猫鲍勃》，由鲍勃本色出演。

A pet that inspired the book A Street Cat Named Bob has died aged 14.

James Bowen met Bob in 2007 during his battle with drug addiction when he found the cat abandoned and injured and decided to look after him.

He began taking the ginger cat with him when busking or selling The Big Issue in London.

Bowen eventually wrote a book about their relationship which became a smash hit and was made into a film, featuring Bob, in 2016.

在一份确认鲍勃去世的声明中，主人波文表示：

“鲍勃拯救了我的生命，就是这么简单。他给予我的不仅仅是陪伴。有他在我的身边，我找到了错过的人生方向与目标。”
"Bob saved my life. It's as simple as that. He gave me so much more than companionship. With him at my side, I found a direction and purpose that I'd been missing."

“我们的书籍和电影所取得的成功是个奇迹。他遇见了上千人，感动了上百万生命。从来没有一只猫能像它一样，以后也不会有了。”
"The success we achieved together through our books and films was miraculous. He's met thousands of people, touched millions of lives. There's never been a cat like him. And never will again."

“我觉得生命中的光熄灭了。我永远不会忘记他。”
“I feel like the light has gone out in my life. I will never forget him.”
