PART FIVE

The Zen of Bob – How to Be Good to Ourselves

 

Cats know instinctively how to look after themselves. They don’t need to go on fad diets, or hire personal trainers or masseurs to keep themselves fit. They don’t need psychologists or life coaches to teach them how to live well.

They just know how to do it – while remaining chilled-out in the process.

That’s certainly the case with Bob. Someone once described him as having an inner peace, a ‘Zen-like calm’ in everything he does. Watching him over the years, I’ve seen that we could all learn a little from his methods, and benefit from what you might call the Zen of Bob.
