I want to get a hamster, or gerbil, or some small rodent, or fish...how do i convince my parents?♫?
i really want a gerbil or hamster, or fish?? something cute and small. how do i convince my parents that i am up to this challenge??
Research hamsters. Are you sure you want one? They live up to four years! And they are nocturnal, so they can only be kept in your room if you sleep heavily. They also are sensitive to light, heat, and many other things such as pets and small children. If you have cats that will try to eat it, think twice. Same goes for younger siblings that might squish them by mistake. They can't be kept in direct sunlight or in drafty areas. They need a pretty stable temperature. They also need to be handled every day to stay friendly and to have their cage cleaned every other day to stay healthy.
Ask your parents nicely if you would be able to get a hamster. If they say no, tell them you have looked up hamsters and pet stores/shelters/breeders around the area. (If your parents say yes, to have a hamster you would need a wheel without bars [solid surface so they don't get stuck], cage bedding, hamster food, a cage, a hamster, and a cage Water Bottle)
Be persistent without being annoying. If they say maybe, you may be lucky! Show them pictures of hamsters and give them details of your research of hamsters. Get them interested in the process and you may be able to change their minds.
Be patient. After a few weeks (or days), they might say yes. If not, ask for the reason. There are lots of reasons for and against getting a pet. If you know why they refused, you can either make peace with the decision, or plan how to convince them in the future.
Plan financially for your hamster's care. Showing your parents the plan can help convince them you are responsible enough for a pet! On the other hand, it may convince you that you can find a cheaper hobby.
