CHICAGO — Don't have a cat of your own to snuggle with on National Cat Day? 

Uber has got you covered.

Today only cat enthusiasts can request a kitten delivery between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m., according to the company's blog.

To do this, use your Uber app on your phone and request the "kittens" option. 

It costs $30 for 15 minutes of snuggling time, and the money go towards a participating animal shelter like Chicago Anti-Cruelty Society. (We can't think of anything more perfect than that.)

If you can't let the furball out of your arms, you have the option of adopting the kitten, too. 

Be warned: the company says they are expecting a lot of requests, so there is a chance that a kitten may not be available.
