congratulations I'm so jealous, kittens are the best, and cats are definately easy to look after, they are very independent once adults.

You can give wet and dry food, also look into an article in the pet section here about raw, meaty bones diet for cats and dogs. You can give a small raw chicken wing for them to eat every now and again, its good for their teeth and my cat goes psycho when she gets one, growls at us when we go near her if she's eating one lol.

I dont' have a problem with leaving cats for a night or two either, as long as there is adequate food and water and litter trays.

Enjoy her, once she starts playing and being cute you will be besotted!
