I finally found "J.T.!"

...The Monkees was occasionally pre-empted for the CBS Children's Hour, a highly acclaimed hour-long series of 3 specials beginning with Jane Wagner's poignant teleplay J.T., the story of a shy Harlem youth's tough Christmas with an injured stray cat that he can't bring home because of his grouchy dad. So, does anyone else remember the line, "I want me this cat I found?" Well, it's from the TV movie. "J.T." which I've been trying to find for years , which aired one fateful Saturday afternoon on CBS in 1969. Here's how someone else on IMDB described "J.T." "I first saw J.T. in the late 60's or early 70's on a show possibly called "CBS Children's Television Workshop". It was on Saturday mornings about noon after the cartoons were over. It was aired sporadically after that around Christmas in the mid 70's. It isn't a Christmas movie per say but the plot is set around the time of Christmas. &qu
