Funny thing is I was in the same situation as you. I currently have two hamsters and a parakeet. What i did was tell them how great pets they are and show them lots of YouTube videos of parakeets talking, doing tricks, etc, so it would inspire them. My dad said it was okay for me as long as i take care of it. But my mom on the other refused and complained on how they'll be messy and too much work and money. I did lots of research in made a little packet. My mom kept saying excuses not to read it so i recited the facts to her when she was watching tv and in the kitchen. My birthday was near so i told my mom i wanted a parakeet and i'd be really psyched if i got one. I guess that worked and i ended up having one :)

How do you convince your parents to buy a Guinea pig and one hamster?

Study hamsters and guinea pigs. and everything you need to know about them. Write down neat notes and hang them around your room. Decide which cages are good and which are bad. Tell your parents occasionally you'd love a hamster - but don't nag them. Set up a fake hamster cage with a plastic box that is the right size. Wash it as much as you need to wash a hamster cage. Pretend to change its food bowl and water as often as you need it. Then, your parents may consider it.


How do you convince your parents to get a hamster when you already have two cats?

You have to prove you are worthy of keeping the hamster safe. You have to be responsible and persuasive but not pushy. Do you take good care of your cats? i assume so... just ask them "why do you think I couldn't handle a hamster when i can handle 2 cats that are like 10 times the size of one!" I just got a hamster just about a year ago. My parents were definitely not for the whole idea. We had a dog for about a week when i was younger. then we realized we couldn't take care of it because we were never home. so we gave her to one of our friends. And we took good care of her for the couple of days that we had her. So that really helped that I took good care of her. Good luck!


How can you convince your parents to buy you a parakeet?

I have the same problem because i want a second one... but really the best way to at least get one is to buy it yourself because they're really only about $20 and most parents love letting you have things when you work for them yourself... say ill buy the parakeet if you promise to buy all of its supplies... works pretty well if they dont know how expensive supplies can be...
