Less than an hour later, the vet called.
Breaking down in tears, James sobbed: "They said: 'We’ve got Bob here, but it’s bad news.' and I said: 'Please don’t say it. Don’t say it.' And they said: "He’s been in an accident and he’s passed away.'"
Bob was killed by a blow to the head from a car on Monday night in a hit and run. The trauma caused a haematoma that killed him instantly.
He was handed into the vet by a member of the public who found him. The driver has not yet come forward.
