How much does it take to raise/maintain a kitty cat?

It doesn't matter which cat you get. I would tell you to get a male and not a siamese ( siamese are knwon for aggression)...males are usually morequiet and they dont give birth..but they spray..unless you adopt a fixed cat. To keep a cat is not expensive...well the first thins you buy ( plate and litter box and food) will be about 100$ but after that you only spend for food and litter. my cat is not a problem. You should definitly get a kitty =D
