Cats need alot of play time to grow! Playing with her makes it even more fun, that's why it's only best to get a cat if you can give it alot of attention. Playing is also a way to calm your cat down.
If you go out alot, make sure you give your cat a few things to play with. It's best to lock your cat inside when your out. However, if you lock your cat in a place in your house (This may be just to keep her safe or to prevent it to knocking off things/destroying your house), make sure you have the food, water and some toys in there. Toys will keep her non-bored and they might be thirsty or hungry whilst your gone.
Toys:
You can buy toys for your cats at a lot of places. I like home-made toys better though. If you just want to buy toys for the cat, or want to do both, that's fine too. The best place to get cat toys is at pet stores. I woudn't say $2 are the best, but you can get some toys there. Cats like to switch toys, they don't just stay with one all the time, so make sure you buy it least 3. They love toy mice and balls, like mine do!
Cats also love balls of wool, like you may know. Buy a ball of wool, then give to her, she (or he) will drag it along the house and play with it for a while. I've also learned, make a ball out of paper (get a sheet of paper then scrunch it up) then attach it to furniture. Your cat will be busy trying to get it off! Toys that move are also good, they like chasing them.
If you want a treat toy, that's easy. Just get paper, put a few treats in it then scrunch it up with a bit of sticky stuff (That your cat can still open it). Or get a kong toy and put treats in there then cover the top up with something (ask your vet), that's usually for dogs but hey, who said cats aren't as important as them?
