Another Answer:
Yes, I have one cat. He is my first cat whom my partner and I rescued off the streets when he was 8 weeks old. Locke is now just over a year old and has turned into a very handsome cat indeed. He is a Domestic Shorthair (a moggy) with brown tabby markings and white on his toes, belly and throat. He is very vocal and loves attention and cuddles.

What infections can you get from a cat scratching you?
If a cat scratches you, and you do not tend to the scratch, it will very likely become infected. Cat scratches can become very seriously infected almost overnight.
When a cat scratches you, immediately wash the scratch with soap and antiseptic, and coat with a liberal dose of antibiotic cream such as Neosporin. Depending on the depth and severity of the scratch, you may need to head to the Dr for an antibiotic shot. Should you decide to self treat, watch closely for signs of infection. At the first sign of redness spreading out from the scratch, go to the ER.
I know three people who were badly scratched by cats and who did not seek treatment. All three wound up in the ER several days later with raging infections. Each one of the cats was a pet, so it wasn't like some dirty clawed feral did the deed. Always take cat scratches seriously!

No cat is an omnivore. An omnivore is a term given to animals that will eat both plant matter and other animals, such as bears, pigs, humans, mice, rats, badgers, etc. Every single cat, no matter what species or breed it is, is a carnivore.
Cats are called obligate carnivores which means they must eat meat to survive, as meat and other aspects of prey (such as organs and bone) supply all the nutrients and moisture a cat needs. Plants do not offer any nutrients to a cat at all, and they have trouble digesting such foods. While a cat may occasionally be seen eating grass, it is thought it is for medicinal purposes as it helps settle or clear the cat's stomach.
A cat's temperament has nothing to do with its coat colour. This myth probably stems from the fact that a nice - or nasty - disposition can be hereditary. There are certain breeds, such as the ragdoll, that are known for being particularly friendly. It is easy to confuse a colour with a breed. The temperament will depend more on what the cat experiences as a kitten than who its parents were. If it is socialised early and handled by many people, brought into contact with other people, and not frightened or abused, most cats will turn out to be friendly and gentle.
If you buy a free kitten then how much would the additional stuff cost?
There are many things to consider when thinking of buying a kitten.

Food, litter, litter tray, bowls, toys and scratching posts are all essential purchases - with food and litter being things that have to be bought frequently as opposed to toys and bowls. But the most expensive part of having cats is the vet bills. For shots, neutering and micro-chipping costs, check-ups and especially in the event the kitten or cat may become injured or sick.
