Get him a comfy bed and blanket, lots of toys to play with, a scratch poll (to protect your furniture), kitten food (both wet & dry), water not milk some cats are lactose intolerant so get special cat milk, treats, cat nip, brush (start to groom his as early as possible so he gets used to it). Litter tray and litter, get him insured,microchipped, treat for worms and fleas , vaccinations, neutered. Give him lots of love and attention.

8 week old kitten is a regular kitten. If he/she is lonely and crying at lot place an old wind up clock undeneath his/her bed linnens this will make them think of a heartbeat. The more attention you give them make them play the more sociable they will be and often more affectionate. As for food start with the dry cat food if he/she is having problems place a little at a time and add water to it it will make it a bit more mushy. Choose a good quality cat food for kittens. The kitten is probably already litter trainned by mom if not show it where the litter is if it goes elsewhere as soon as you catch it bring it and put it in the litter box. But most cats are pretty smart even that young and the need to scratch & dig to do their thing once in the litter box they pretty much get it.
Always make sure it has fresh water and that is pretty much it enjoy the antics of your new kitten! They like kids grow up too fast!

First of all LOVE IT. Feed it KITTEN FOOD and prepare a litter box for him/her.Toys are fun or just crumple up a piece of tin foil or the strip from the milk bottle. Have fun with it. Good Luck!!!

8 week old kitten is the time when they are ready to leave their momma, so he should already be weened. Give him some kitten food so it is easier for him to chew and water.

Pay for its shots, play with him/her often, do lots of research on how to take care of cats, buy it treats, litter, toys and foods, and remember to give it lots of love and attention!
