How do you convince your parents to allow you to have a pet rat?

Answer 1

.

• Be responsible, if they still do not let you ask in a month a different way. After a while they will, get annoyed if you ask for it more than one a month. Also tell them you will same up money to pay for some of the cat.

• As long as no one has Allergies in your house, then sit down with your parents and tell them that you will take full responsibility for the cat. This will mean getting the cat, buying a scratching post (one that the cat can sit on top of and feel safe or perhaps your dad can help you build one), watching that it doesn't scratch your parent's furniture or urinate on any article in the house other than the litter box. Then there is the vet bill for their shots (rabies, etc.) and a good physical check-up, plus good food to be sure they are healthy. Tell your parents you are willing to do chores around the house to pay for all these things and mean it! If you want the cat bad enough then be willing to earn it! It's good practice for your future
• if your parents don't listen do something else like ask them do i keep my room or the house clean or anything they say you don't do.like you don't keep the house clean.then say if i keep the house clean for a month then can you get me a kitten or cat then if they say no keep making the number of months longer like 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11. it needs to be under a year.then keep it for that long.for just some evidence you can record them by voice or video,dosn't matter how you record(optional)then keep your promise and wait

Answer 2

Well I would suggest you ask your parent to take you to the local R.S.P.C.A. and have a look at the cats there, some of the S.P.C.A's have a program called "home for the holidays" where cats with no families of there own can be taken home with families for the holidays and possibly be adopted from the results of the stay at your home.

I have two one year old cats and they were both rescues from the R.S.P.C.A. here and they are members of our family. They will be spending there first Christmas with us in our home.

Getting rodents can be rather hard to convince parents. But, not possible! I did some research and found this YouTube video for you. This may have everything you need to convince them!

Answer 4

o. frst

things first. Get loads of cute rat pics from Google images. Decorate your room rat style. Every time your parents say something, relate it to a rat comment.

Example: if they say 'Do you want popcorn in your lunch?' then say something like:'Ok,

hey rats can eat popcorn too!' or if they say 'What colour shirt should I wear today?green

or white?', you say'Hey

great idea, I should get a white rat!'

Also bombard them with facts about rats!

Answer 5

well first you have to get together and talk about it if they still say no then. you will have to clean the whole house then make dinner and wash the clothes and in the morning make them tea or coffee. then have another talk about geting a cat and if all that does not work well then i do not know.

Answer 6

Let your parents know:

• That they can trust you.
• You're dedicated.
• More responsible.
• Etc.

If you don't have an allowance, then do odd jobs and extra chores. If you are a teen, there are many more options, for example; a job, it could help you seem more responsible and dedicated to your parents OR even you can buy your own pet.
