Tell them that getting a pet will make you responsible. Works everytime

Show how mature and responsible you can be. To start with, don't shout and strop if they say no to the hamster. Put forward a good argument. Make sure you do the things you are responsible for now, without any hassles.
Also - find out why they object (much easier if your requests for a hamster don't turn into a slagging match) and then you can try and work round it, as you know specifically what it is they object to.
It might well be that you don't have a choice. i wasn't allowed pets when I was a kid as my mum hates all animals. I had to wait until I moved into my own place and now I have a veritable zoo lol.
Good luck!

show her you are a responsible person by first making sure you take care of the things and chores you have now. we all that is considered on good grounds then ask again giving examples on how you are a responsible person who can take care of things.
