1. Research hamsters. Are you sure you want one? They live up to 2-3 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 once a week to stay healthy.
2. 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)
3. 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.
4. 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.
5. Plan financially for your hamster's care. Showing your parents the plan can help convince them you are responsible enough for a pet!
6. Tell your parents that hamsters are very cheap to buy and look after.
7. Go to the library and get books on hamsters. Every pet requires research!
8. If you have a goldfish or betta fish, show your parents that if you can look after a fish, you can look after a hamster.

Honestly thats alor of pets plus just say youll get the same sex hamster so they dont make babies. That might be why he doesnt want you to get them.
take care of tha ones u have the best u can, when its time for a birthday, xmas ect then ask again.
maybe you should tell and show them how well you take care of your other pets! you can tell the myour dad wouldent have to clean the hamsters cage, or even get near it if he dident want to! try to convince them you can be ressponible enough for anouther! hope it works, best of luck
pearsonal expreince, internet, research
try to bribe them: if you do this then maybe you can get a hamster like extra chores, showing real love to your other pets, etc.
A never had any good experiences with hamsters ><
sorry, no answer
sorry, no answer
So Just Ask Them To Talk About It And Then Ask In About A Week.
Okay just
reasearch hamsters, even though you already know about them
tell your parents intersting facts
dont straight out tell them you want another hamster just say "wow [name of your hamster] is getting to lonely now that im starting school and cant play with her as much as i used to" or "i wish i had another hamster", then a couple of days later tell them "I WANT ANOTHER HAMSTER" then if they say no just beg, it always works!
