Just got my cat back from the vet. Turns out she isn't actually a she. She is a he.
Five people checked him out and everyone said that he was a she. I guess he's really living up to his name right now, which is Gwyndolin.
if you spend a lot of time with it when you first get it, itll most likely have a bond with you. My cat that we got a couple years ago still follows me around and claws at my door when its closed
If you give it too much attention, it may never grow out of kitten behavior. Which can be a good or bad thing, depending on your perspective :P

that may have happened with my cat, as he is diffrent from any other cat ive had. though he is now more friendly, vocal, energetic as well as not giving a shit about my dog barki at him
Since it's still relatively little, you need sand box for cat to crap in until it's old enough to go outside on it's own. 8 weeks old is almost 2 months and it may even be old enough to go outside on it's own, if you ain't somewhere too damn high that is.

it also depends where you live, all my cats have been indoor and indoor cats tend to live longer than outdoor cats

Cats really shouldn't be living outdoors, they harm local populations of birds/other animals, contract illness a lot more often, and they can be hurt/killed by neighbors.
They can also harm other people too by shitting in their garden, for example.

If you let them outside, just make sure you take them in at night. Don't get a cat bell either, that is the only reason the coyote killed mine.
Expect a furry little ball of adorableness and murderous intent.
[QUOTE=Swog;44946137]Be sure to have a litterbox in an easy-to-access location. If your house is two-story, buy two litterbox and place one upstairs and one downstairs.[/QUOTE]
More important is to keep the litterbox clean. Ever since he got a bladder infection a few years ago my cat has a habit of peeing on whatever is soft and close by if the litter boxes aren't clean enough.
[QUOTE=Swog;44946626]Refer to this diagram.

My cat loves having his belly scratched. Though he has to resist a cat's natural nature to wrap around whatever's touching his belly, lol.
a few things.
1. Beware of Barf.
2. Try for a female, Males like to piss, and cat piss is very very very very very pugnant.
3. Not all cats are Satan, just treat them well and they'll admire you.

Christ yes. My oldest cat, Max, has a spraying problem. I thought it was a urine tract infection at first, because this happened once before, but now I believe it's behavioral, which is mostly incurable as far as I know.
My other cat, Sam, hasn't sprayed yet but he does like to roll around in the litterbox.
Bad little shits, but I love them.
