I hate to sound like a "crazy cat lady", but if your new kitty will be home alone, another kitty (especially kitten) would be so great for the happiness of your cat.

Aside from that...

*Lots of gentle love and attention (constantly)

*Good food, so she's healthy and pain free

*Lots of stimulating toys (ours LOVE those small, fake mice, feather sticks, laser pointers, etc.)

*Fresh water, changed every day (Our cats drink much more with their kitty fountain...it seems to entertain them as well)

*A few places to hide (like cat beds that are covered, under a bed, etc)

*A place to scratch....cat tree, cardboard scratchers, etc.

*Clean litterbox

*Lots of playtime with you

*A place where she feels safe...away from loud noises, dogs, children.

*Lots of love

*Lots of love

*Lots of love AND understanding. (Cats need to be trained and respected)

Hope that helps. If you ever have any questions once you get your sweetie, this is a GREAT place to come.

Congrats on your new little one. Do you have a name picked out yet?
