My cat is extremely self-sufficient, and she is just now getting attention hungry. It's kind of a 'leave me alone until I tell you otherwise' thing with her. When I do pick her up, I usually will slide one hand under her, putting fingers between her front legs and wrap my other arm around for support in the back.
We have 2 dogs, so she has the laundry room when the dogs are in. Her litter box is in a 'private area' and her food and water are on the other side of the room. When hubby and I decided to go on vacation, we asked his family to stop by and check on the cat while the dogs were at the kennel. We got a self feeder and self watering dish, and she was pretty much set.
As for cat toys, they are short lived excitement. The only things my kitty wants to play with are my skeens of cross stitch floss, so it is a very good idea to make sure yours will be out of reach. (tweezers will work to remove pet hair from projects, btw) Aside from that, she will chase those little fluff balls that you can get in a craft department for hours on end. She's also fascinated with shoes for some reason.
