Answer:

Tie a few toys to strings and dangle them from door knobs and the likePlace several toys in a small cardboard box and seal the boxCut holes that are just large enough to admit a cat's paw but too small for the toys to fall outIf one of your windows lets in a lot of sun, arrange a shelf so she can nap there.
I just got a cat the other day so I've been doing some readingYou can get balls that you can hide food inThe ball is made so that they have to be clever to try and get the food outYou could also try hiding treats aroundHe'll probably be able to smell them and go nuts looking for them.
Unless your cat is very young - it will get into the routine of you being gone and will probably sleep much of the dayBe sure to play with her when you do get homeYou can also try those automated toys (they have a base and lure above it which it waves around when it sense motion.) But I'm not sure I would worryIf she has a window to look out of, cats are really good at watching the world go by - they love to do thatBest of luck!
Wal-Mart has a good, inexpensive selection of cat toysMine just adore the balls with the bells in them and also the little furry miceHeck, we've even taken apart cheap feather dusters and tied the feathers together and hung them with string and elastic from doorwaysThe eleastic is great because it bounces and appears to flyOh! and if your cat is young enough, we used to keep one of our kittens occupied for HOURS by letting the faucet very slowly drip in the bathroom sinkWasteful, I know, but he was as entertained as we were watching him play with that drip and try to figure it out!
Aluminium's existence and name was found out by Humphrey Davy in 1808But in 1825, Hans Christian Oersted isolated it by reacting aluminium chloride (AlCl3) with potassium amalgam, an alloy of potassium and mercuryHeating the resulting aluminium amalgam under reduced pressure caused the mercury to boil away leaving aluminium metalAluminium reacts with oxygen to form aluminium oxide (Al2O3).
