Katy Perry unleashed a feline chatbot to help fans get their paws on her new perfume
If you are one of 90 million and counting hoping for a morsel of Katy Perry's digital love, the wait can sometimes seem cold and lonely.
Lucky for you, she's launching a new chat bot to tap into her online fanbase.
Kik unleashed a Katy Perry bot with personality quizzes that will determine stuff like whether "Firework" or Roar" was about your soul. You can also win her new perfume, Mad Love, including a chance to score one of five bottles Perry signed with her own paws.

Your new BFF bot's avatar is a cat named Maddie, naturally, for Mad Love.
The bot, designed by Block Party, gives you options like being a good friend versus casting a spell on your crush. While this is all about the individual user's personality, Mashable would like to officially recommend witchcraft.
Failure, however, is not an option.
Fans who don't want to hang out with Maddie, you can use custom Katy stickers and Kik points, which you can earn using the app, to buy an actual bottle of the perfume.
Teenagers may not have credit cards, but that will never stop them from using social media to get what they want.
