Some cats are robots. Don't trust their programming. Some cats aren't. Don't trust them either.
Basically, let her acclimatize to her surroundings, she'll find places to sleep, all cats have a series of favourite places and her own schedule that suits her personality. Don't bother her at first, she'll get around to bothering you eventually. She needs to accept you as a subservient cat.
If she's going to be an outdoor cat, consider a microchip cat flap, it'll keep the local riffraff out. All modern cats have microchips, like people. She'll be neutered, unlike people. Remember that the cats' main predator is the motor car, so letting a cat outdoors is usually a bad idea if you're near a busy road.
Flea collars and pet-shop flea stuff don't work these days (the bugs are resistant), vets do prescription drops for external and internal parasites, they're not cheap, but they're worth it. Just hope you don't have one like LMC, good luck squirting the back of her neck and living to tell that tale. She should get an annual check-up and a series of boosters. Yes, you will compare your vet with your GP and wonder if you'd get better service in your surgery if you attended as a furry. You'd also probably get something shoved up your arse, I leave the reader to decide whether that's a positive or negative outcome. Vet bills are very expensive as all vets are (a) posh and therefore (b) need a minimum of twenty ski trips a year.
Get used to cleaning up vomit. Cats love being sick. I recommend Dr Beckmann's Carpet Cleaner. Every cat owner should buy shares in this company. Or just get a hardwood floor.
Big litter tray, be aware that they may be particular about the type of litter. If they don't like what you've provided, they won't need human language to express this. The enclosed trays hold in some of the smell.
Find out what she eats. They're fussy about food too. Often mental for tinned tuna. Bad Cat will climb up me to try and get the can. Seriously, she's learned how to operate the can opener and she doesn't even have opposable thumbs. If it got her into a can of tuna, she'd learn quantum physics.
Cats that don't get run over, tend to live to old age (twenty or so, unlike dogs, a quarter of which don't make four years these days).
Consider catteries etc. if you go on holiday, not leaving them to fend for themselves (which is mean and unfair). Plus they might choose the make the point by burning down the house while you are away.
