Make sure to keep your grades up, First of all show them that you are responsible for taking care of the animal, second suggest to keep the cage in your room or somewhere that your parents don't go near very often, Third, make sure to show them that you understand their point of view why they don't want you to have one, be understanding, sweet, and respectful (trust me this helped me get my hamster) forth, show them cute pictures of them and how they are good for the enviroment. I hope this helps :) good luck

Try to act responsible, get your parent's trust, and most importantly, save money. I had to save up $600 to get a tortoise, get straight A's, and overall be nicer to my parents.

Good grades doesn't mean you are good at pet care. Same with chores.
Your parents don't want reptiles in the house so you can't have any
