ooo I can go on and on spamming with extra stuff to have her enjoy but I’m lowk tired so will prob come back! Water fountain my cats love, it’s tiny and get metal compared to plastic or anything. Cats love flowing water compared to still water and it keeps them hydrated. I have just a regular bowl and the fountain!

Talk to her! Even if she can’t understand the words she can feel the vibes—I like to sit on the floor w\ her after work and talk about my day. Honestly it seems to be very therapeutic for us both!

If you can, get two, especially if she’s going to be an indoor kitty. They get bored and will want someone to play with
