Not a problem with the grammar: I see worse all the time.
And congratulations on asking before you get the kitty!
You will need a litter box, which should be cleaned out every day. After all, you wouldn't want to use a potty that never gets flushed!
In light of that, you'll also want a scooper. That's one of those little things that gets missed in a fever of buying toys and things for the cat.
Toys are nice. But they aren't essential: Sometimes a paper wad is just as good, if not better.
Make sure your kitty always has water, but try not to overfeed him: Cats can get as many problems with being overweight as humans do.
You'll want to make sure your cat gets fixed, and has his shots. If you're careful to keep your kitty indoors, though, there are some shots you can forgo. A word of warning here: Make sure his rabies shots are always current. There have been rumors that laws might get passed to require that. And make sure that your kitty's shots for distemper and feline leukemia are current too.
Good luck!

Part siamese cats are awesome if you can find them. My Cosmo is very loving and gives kisses in the mornings. The best way to take care of a cat is to make sure they have a clean litter box and food and water. Also, make sure you get your cat neutured or spayed right away. If you wait too long they might start spraying (usually males). If it's going to be an indoor cat, make sure it has a lot of toys and things to keep him/her busy. If they are going to be outside, make sure they have all their shots and that they're again, neutured or spayed. If your not going to be home a lot, you might want to consider getting two cats so they keep each other company. I have two indoor cats that are 1 year and the other is 8 months and they love each other a lot and play all the time.Cat's are independent creatures and they usually do what they want, so you usually don't have to worry about big messes or potty training. Hope that helps

They mainly just require attention and patience.
Actually they can require quite a bit of attention and patience. Especially if it's your only cat, and you keep it inside.
They're particularly good at inserting themselves between you and whatever it is you're trying to work on. Schoolwork for example.
Thought you might want to know.

You should leave good dry food out at all times...unless your kitty overeats....then watch it's food. Good dry food is IAMS..... If you get a kitten...start with KITTEN food for the first year.
Leave CLEAN fresh water out at all TIMES....I change my cat's water twice a day...I think once a day is enough...but I just do it cuz I love her..
also clean the litterbox out once or twice a day....I use a scooping litter that clumps and is very easy to clean...SCOOP away is the name of it.
I also feed her wet food once a day....3 oz....
Leave toys out for her like balls and mice....but not stings or yarn that she could hang herself on.
Also pet her and love her...cats will clean themselves by licking
Leave cozy places for her to curl up in....cat beds...or just baskets with a towel of blanket.....GOOD LUCK

2-3 weeks old? What irresponsible breeder did you get him from? you may desire to convey him back, and wait yet another 5-6 weeks earlier taking him abode. i could incredibly convey him to the vet, merely to be certain what they particular. additionally, particular that's widespread for doggies to have delicate stool.
