As someone who has had and currently has more than one pet at a time, I can understand how you would want another pet. As a mother, I can see where your mom is coming from. Your mother is most likely taking into consideration your age, your current cats' ages, your families time at home to spend with your pets, financial obligations, as well as many other factors. I suggest that depending on your age and current schedule, you discuss with your mom other ways of sharing your love with another cat. Ex: fostering a cat who will eventually be placed in a permanent home. Or volunteering at an animal shelter.

Well this same thing happened to me so I started showing her that i could take care of cats really well. I started playing with my other cats a lot more than i used to. I cleaned the litterbox. I fed and watered them and I just plain took care of them.
My mom soon noticed that I was responsible enough for a kitten. The good news though in my hose is that instead of getting a kitten, a stray cat just had 4 kittens and we took them all in with there mother!
well sorry for getting of track! If that doesnt work, maybe wait a 6 monthes or a year and ask again! Some parents can be stubborn in this situation but i wish you the best of luck!! :)

Believe me 2 cats is plenty. You would be surprised to know the difference between 2 cats to 3 cats when it come to the cat litter box, trust me I know. I have 4 cats and the litter bill alone is ridiculous.

Listen to your mother. If she doesnt want another one, then dont get another one. I bet shes the one taking care of your two cats already. Be happy with the two u already have

Tell your mom that you found the kitten on the side of the rode when you went for a walk and a bird or a turtle was trying to eat it. Hey it worked for me getting my second dog.

You don't. You should love the 2 cats you already have...

Take full responsablity for the other 2 with no complaining. that would have worked on my mom.
Good luck. :)

tell her you will take very very good care of it,and if she still says no,then just ask her for an outside cat.

I agree with your mom. No one needs that many pets. If you feel the "need" to gather more pets maybe you need professional help.
