1947 • A man finds an average town in an average movie. There was potential, but it just didn’t come together. This scene with James Stewart, Jane Wyman and a kitten may be the best part of the movie.

This story originally appeared on RealTime/STL.

It was a purrfect pairing: Tenth Life Cat Rescue created a one-night-only cat café Thursday night, featuring cats and coffee.

There was free coffee and tea for those who took their own mug to the Kitty Café at Tenth Life’s storefront, 3200 Cherokee St., and lots of toys and attention for the cats and kittens, which were available for adoption. Here’s an inside look at the pop-up event.

Tenth Life focuses on rescuing injured, abused and special needs cats and kittens.

The Carvin family found a kitten on the road and is trying to nurse him back to health. The rescue, of course, has been tweeted.

After rescuing a cat, journalist Andy Carvin asks those who want to help to donate to no-kill animal shelters.

A passer-by hears a cat’s pleas, and turns to social media for help.
