Here's something we're pawsitive about -- Groupon's got a sense of humor and a penchant for felines.

In honor of April Fools' Day, the company launched "Grøüber," a transportation service that lets you order cars driven by cats.

Grøüber cars utilize GPS-guided red lasers to instruct the four-legged drivers of their routes. And, lucky for commuters everywhere, the fare cost decreases as demand surges. (Finally, a business model the feline community can get behind.)

“With Grøüber, we make redeeming a Groupon even more seamless by having our cats physically deliver customers to the business," Barnicus Stapleton, feline fleet commander and director of haulage and wellness at Groupon, tells Mashable. "And best of all, you can be assured of a peaceful ride because everyone knows that cats have complete indifference towards people.”

We now paws our previously scheduled reporting to bring you this list of groan-worthy cat-driving puns:

They're not so good as parallel purr-king.

They prefer fur-wheel drive.

These drivers tail lights are always out.

They'll never forget to use the purr-king break.
