When you want to cuddle puppies, call Uber. But when you want to cuddle with adoptable, adorable felines, you need to head to SoHo's new cat cafe, Little Lions

According to DNAinfo, Little Lions is separated into two areas, a tea parlor, and a "cat sanctuary," where you can spend $11 for an hour of feline relaxation. 

What could be better than sipping on hot tea under elegant chandeliers and ornamental ceilings while little kitties curl up in your lap? 

You may be like us, staunch dog people, but you cannot feel all of the feels at the thought of a little purring floof falling asleep in your arms. 

You might even feel the twinge of longing and regret in your heart when you realize you need to leave Little Lions, because your hour with the cats is up... but wait! You can adopt these little munchkins! 

All of the cats in the sanctuary are spayed, neutered, vaccinated, and micro-chipped, just waiting for you to bring them home for unlimited cuddles. 

The cats are provided by Best Friends Animal Society, a group that rescues dogs and cats from kill shelters.

Little Lions is the brainchild of founder Erin McShane, who said that the cafe "is a labor of love and a pragmatic solution to address cat homelessness," due to her time volunteering at shelters. 

Little Lions is located at 40 Grand Street, and is open every day between 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., however, the cat sanctuary is only open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Reservations aren't required, but highly suggested. 

Check out some pictures of the cat cafe below.
