Many have the right idea with their "complete needs system"s, but to summarize:
As a general rule, your cat needs...
NUTRIENTS. --- Proper Nutrition (check out the link above)
EXERCISE. --- To Exercise, Hunt & Interact With Other Creatures (this means playtime w/ you & their other pet housemates!)
HYGIENE. --- Proper Hygienic & Medical Upkeep (includes scratching posts - check out the link above)
REST. --- Rest (means "letting sleeping cats lie" and keeping them calm & safe)
SPACE. --- Autonomy, Independence & Privacy (this means giving them some space and alone time)
