1. Tell your mom you want one for your birthday. A classic method but quite effective. 2. Enter a giveaway. If you look around the web, you can sometimes find free kitty giveaways. The best one right now is at poopie.cat. He gives away a kitty every day, and all you have to do to enter is "like" a few kitties and put in your CryptoKitty address (so he knows where to send your free kitty). Pretty easy, right? 3. Win a contest. We held a Breeders' Cup contest earlier this month, and KittyHats is holding a Kitty Fashion Contest right now. Also, CryptoKitties just hired a community manager (yay Brian!) who will hopefully be doing more contests and giveaways in the near future. Keep an eye on our NEWS section or LINKS page for updates. 4. Start a website and hope someone donates a kitty. :) It's worth a shot, right? (*cough cough* 0xaba935f589805095a892ecefdb6eb83eff45d679)

I asked experienced players what they wish they would've known at the start. Here is their advice.
DON'T OVERSPEND ON GAS!! Metamask automatically sets Gas Limit and Gas Price for you, but if you learn to adjust it, you'll save a LOT in fees. Visit my post here to understand gas, or just do this: - Set gas limit to 250,000. - For gas price, visit ethgasstation.info and use the Gas Price Std amount. There are countless ways to enjoy CryptoKitties. Here are a few ideas to get you started.
The Cat Lover You buy a few cats. You give them cute and hilarious names. You show them to your friends and family. Your mom says, “You spent your birthday money on that?” But you don’t care what anyone says. You love your cats and you’ll keep them forever. The Collector You love calicools and can’t help hoarding them. Or maybe you’re a Fancy Cat Enthusiast and want one of each kind. Or maybe you want to own every cattribute so as soon as a new cat is discovered, you’ll have all the ingredients you need to create one. Any way you slice it, you’re a cat collector. If you want to search for certain cattributes, just type in their names separated by a space. If you want to search for certain generations, cooldowns, or fancy cats, you need to specify.
Use the chart below to determine your kitty's exact cooldown speed.
Shout-out to Cookie for helping with this! Give her a like: www.cryptokitties.co/kitty/99895.
Here are all the costs and fees you might encounter while playing CryptoKitties.
Costs - Buying a cat. (Price varies.) - Hiring a sire for your cat. (Price varies.) - Breeding. (0.008 ETH)* Each kitty has 8 cattributes that describe them, and they fall into different categories. You can see them all in our Trait Chart or get the general idea from these examples.
