Hey /an I've finally settled into my home, have a for-real grown up job and am stable enough to finally have a kitty I've lived with cats before but have never been the main kitteh caregiver.

I'm looking for any tips/tricks to keeping a happy and healthy indoor cat.

Any info including (but not limited to) good nutrition and health hazards to watch out for, to toys and games would be most welcome.

Well for one if you're going to be the only person in the apartment, I don't suggest getting a kitten. As training can be a pain in the neck especially if you have to be gone for long periods of time (aka work).

Besides those sad adult kitties at the SPCA need homes too!

This indicates that you are far too stupid to take care of a cat. Look into a cactus. Some of them look just as fuzzy as a cat, and all you have to do is water it occasionally and let it sit in the window.
Now that I think about it, the only difference between a cactus and a cat is that one needs cat food in addition to water.

Wow. Really? Catfood is the only difference? Where can I get a cactus that leaves fur, dead animals, and hairballs all over the place? Also poops in a litterbox?

OP here.

Thank you everyone who has commented. We had been considering an adult cat, and I have been taking a peek at the cats at our local shelter online. Real cuties all. How does one choose?

And for the record I reserve the right to call my cat any pet name I choose including (but not limited to) the names: Kitteh, Schnookums, Sassafras, Pumpkin, Punkin, Peanut, Fluffbutt, Cuddlemeister and Captain Lazypants. Because that's what pet names are for.

When you go to the shelter you can get the cats out and sit with them and find a friendly one. I've adopted two adult cats from my local shelter and its great not to have to litter train, the cats come all grown up and sensible and poo outside automatically.
