A puppy or kitten is always a perfect pet. at 13 a child is old enough to take responsibility for feeding playing with as well as walking a dog daily. If you are in a small place a rat would work just as well they are easily trained and take up very little space but are just as loving as puppies and kittys

Top 5 choices and reasons
1: Dog, it helps them learn disiplin and patients while training it
2: Cat, they're calm and they're great comfort when depresses and quiet and clean
3: Rabbit, nice cuddly, rabbits make everyone feel good
4: Skunk, they're mallow, disiplin and are VERY clean
5: Rat
It really depends on the personality, if the child is more layed back I would reccomend a cat or a skunk, if the child is rambunctious I would recomend the rat. If the child is patient and is the 4.0 GPA type I would reccomend a dog. If the child is lonly I would reccomend a rabbit.

It really depends on the child. If they haven't had a pet before, you probably want to start with something with a little lower maintenance like a rat or even a cat. Cats are very independent. If your child shows he/she is committed to their daily care you could advance to a dog. Rats make good pets. But make sure you get one from a reputable pet shop or breeder who has handled them from birth. If they've done that, they will be very friendly little creatures.

A hamster so when they lose interest in it you won't be stuck with cleaning the cage or feeding it because you can make it a chore unlike dogs or cats you'll get stuck with picking up after the dog and walking him or changing the litter box.

Leopard geckos. They're easily handled and really only need to be cared for once a week when the sand in their habitat is sifted, water refilled, humid box changed and the geckos are fed crickets. My 13-yo loves his!

A cat if the child likes cats or a dog if the child likes dogs. This also depends on where you live.
