If you don't use a car for a long time (say the whole winter) then you're either to start it at least once a week (and better give a short run) or get it prepared. Setup labor includes body polish, oil service, removing spark plugs and pouring couple of "teespoonful's" (my favorite eng word!) of oil right in cylinders with following manual cranking to prevent corrosion (and putting some taps in place of spark plugs) and finally jacking her up to prevent tyres of getting 'squared'. It's good to get tires covered by smth to prevent their oxidation from 03 (ozone).
Don't forget to do some cranking w/o spark plugs (and grounded or disabled ignition coil) before getting her back to the road.
But this all isn't your case (at least not for this winter). Back to your question I'd suggest you to warm her up as often as you can.
