How can I convince my mom to let me get a pet rabbit?
I’m Nikki and I am 15 years old and for my 16th birthday I would like to get a pet bunny. Now I would like to add I do help around the house and get good grades and I feel like I have matured a lot more then I have before. When I asked my mom for a bunny she just said “No.” and I felt that simple response wasn’t good enough so I asked why and she said “No I dont want it” and I said it wasnt gonna be hers to take care of its mine “Then she said we already have two dogs” let me just add my dogs are small breeds, they are matured and more calm now (one is really old and she might die soon…), and also she does not bathe, feed, water, or walk them so I dont see what;s so damn hard for her. Then she says my room isn’t clean and it is it has been for awhile now because I feel that my room is gross if it’s not clean so I’ve been very keen on keeping it a lot more tidy. This sounds immature but another unfair thing is when my brother was living with us (he was 15 or 16) at the time he could go out whenever he wanted without asking and get a pet rat and keep it, and his room was ALWAYS really messy. Also I have been doing some research on rabbits I have decided I would really like one.
tell her you understand her concerns, but tell her you will be responsible as you have been with tidying your room and the house, and that while other girls your age are going out getting pregnant, all you want is a bunny for your 16th. and tell her that if you dont take care of it every day, she has permission to give it away. or, you could propose that if she lets you get a bunny rabbit, you will do something in return for her, I.e. doing the dishes every night or feeding the dogs or something.
Sit down with her and explain to her that you are more mature and remind her that you do a lot like keeping your room clean, helping around the house, and getting good grades and that you will be responsible enough for a rabbit. And you can tell her that a rabbit will help teach you even more about responsibility and that it’ll be a good thing for you. Hope this helps!
Let me ask you a question, you want a rabbit for your 16th birthday? What happens in two years when you graduate? Rabbits live for 8-14 years. What happens when you go off to college or move out? You think your first place is going to allow pets? Especially if you’re going to college. Who’s going to be stuck with this rabbit after you leave your home? If you think that you’re going to be able to have a pet when you leave home, why not just get it when you leave? It’s only 2 more years. It’s not fair to burden your parents with an animal they have no interest in keeping. Rats live between 2-3 years. That is a huge difference. Also, believe me, when you have a pet, there are things you dont think about. I got a cat. For the last 3 years I have only left her for more than 2-3 days one time. My friends are able to go travel, visit home, go do stuff, but I dont have that freedom because I have to think about what I’m going to do with the cat when I’m not here.
give her the puppy dog look, without laughting and kinda mone like a sad lonley puppy. it works for me all the time! :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
