I've inherited a kitten and I need some help

How I ended up with a kitten is a very long story so I'll skip that and end on, I've inherited a 9(ish) week old kitten. Very out of the blue. Did an emergency shop and bought a bed, some toys, litter tray, food bowls, cat carrier and a little comforter. Kitten seems happy but wondering if anyone has any must haves, either toys or home stuff, that we should look at?
Basically the best things you bought for your cat.

Part of the problem at the moment is the kitten absolutely stinks. Stale cigarette smoke and dirty litter trays. I want to clean it but everything I've read on line, I just can't imagine holding the cat down to wash it.

We're on the wait list for injections and for a full check up as well.

Any help would be very appreciated

Good luck and there shouldn't be any need to nail trim

If you could tell my two that! They both needed it! Penelope has needles on her paws

@MoonWoman69 I just had to screenshot that pic of your cat sitting up it's hilarious

Aww little Jam is absolutely adorable! Thank you for being his rescuer!
I was adopted by a little kitten about 2 months ago, she just appeared from nowhere! Despite hundreds of posts on various local SM sites, nobody came forward. We lost our boy Bob after she'd been here three weeks or so.
She had her first season and I didn't realise quite quick enough, so now grandkits are very very imminent! And all have good homes to eventually go to! Which I'm so pleased about.
Try a Feliway plug in, just to chill him out and I'd definitely recommend the feather stick from Pets At Home, mine loves it! Anything crinkly or cat nip based is a go!
Here is Spooky! She's landed on her feet with us, she's truly spoilt!

❤️❤️
