I have a pet cat, and lots of pet mice, too. They certainly can co-exist. Most importantly, keep your pet mice in a cage (a glass aquarium with a mesh lid is best) and try not to let them escape. If they do get out and the cat hurts them, you'll need to take them to a vet right away, even if it's only a scratch. Cat saliva is toxic to mice, and a vet will prescribe antibiotics. I've never had a problem, though--my cat recognizes that the mice are part of the family, and leaves them alone. I've even held both at the same time--the mouse in my hand or on my shoulder, the cat on my lap.

  • 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.

You need to show her that you are responsible and caring, because cats need a lot of responsibility to be taken care of.

It sucks for you if she is allergic to cats, though. (like my mother)

just tell your mom that there is a lot of cats out in the world dieing and you need to save one or more and promise to take care of the cat or cats it always works.

It's very tricky. You should just figure it out by yourself. It's your family after all.

Perhaps by doing some things that prove you can be responsible enough to take care of a kitten. Or consider an adult cat instead of a kitten, they are much easier to take care of.

The best way to convince a mom to get a kitten is to let mom know that you are responsible. Tell your mom that you will feed and love the kitten and always take care of it.

Personally, whoever was my parent or guardian at the time, i would tell them once, β€œ I want that cat.” And, if they said no. Then, I kill them in their sleeps, make it look like a suicide, and, I’d write in their β€œconfessions”: TommyΒ

By taking on more responsibilities around the house, do more chores, show to her you are responsible enough to handle taking care of a cat all on your own. Show her that you will take full responsibility and care of the cat and she will not have to do anything to care for it. Maybe have the cat solely in your room/small part of the house, this way your mom won't have to deal with the cat all the time and it is more of a responsibility for you to care for it.
