Take your parents to a shelter and show them the Kitten that you want and ask the people if you can meet that little kitten

Do you know why your mother doesn't want a kitten?
You'll have to show her that you can be responsible for the kitten.
Now, kittens can be expensive propositions: They will need shots, spaying or neutering, maybe declawing if you can't get them to to use a scratching post or pad, and medical care if they should otherwise become ill. Not to mention the food and litter.
I can't guarantee that this WILL work. But you could try doing research on cats and what you need to do care for them. Make sure to take notes: That will show your mother that you are serious about taking care of the baby. If she still says no to the kitten, don't nag: It'll make her angry. Ask again in a couple of weeks to a month. And make sure to keep your research with you, and continue helping around the house. Perhaps next time she will agree to it.
Good luck!

very well, German Sheperd canines are used for police and self protection applications for human beings. that is because they have a good power of their jaw and their chew is amazingly efficient. they have a good preying instinct besides. even although my canines hasn't ever killed some thing except a already death poultry. Angel would were taking section in with the kittens and ended up killing them extremely. or perchance you've been giving too a lot interest to the kittens and the canines were given curious. yet another chance is that the kittens personal mom killed them. It occurs each from time to time... self-discipline is important, that's going to likely be difficult now that those products have befell yet do not supply up. you want to have a company hand at the same time as it comprises canines, don't experience "undesirable" about giving them acceptable self-discipline. you're the boss round right here, Angel has to appreciate that. try training her with a pragmatic plush kitten, in case you word any signs and indications of her being aggressive, as we talk take action. Stand tall in between them and scold her. do not hit your canines, which will basically develop its aggressiveness. practice her to "go away it" on my own. do not quiver on your voice or sound uncertain, almost scream it in an expert-like voice. considering this had already befell two times...do not go away her out with the help of herself, continually supervise her. determining to purchase a muzzle also facilitates. If all fails, signal up Angel right into a canines self-discipline facility,

sit down with your parents and have a mature discussion prepare a pro con list of getting a kitten and explain why you want one and how you plan to take care of this kitten and how the vet bills are going to be taken care of and the food and the litter and all else that goes along with kittens.
then let her tell you why she doesn't want one and don't interupt her and rationally discuss this matter.and you may be able to convince her that you are mature enough to handle the responcibility of owning a kitten and then if she says yes PLEASE go to your local shelter and adopt one. (also don't forget about adult cats, they need love too and maybe easier to take care of then kittens)
but if your mom still says no, don't whine and throw a fit, respect her decision, she may remember that and when you get older may be more likely to let you get a kitten than if you threw a fit when she said no.
also when you grow up and get your own place you can get a place that will let cats live with you and you can get one then. That's what I had to do.

A kitten is about the same responsibility as a new baby. There are things you MUST do to take care of it, and you really don't have time.
You need to spend your time studying and being the best daughter you can be. Good Luck

Give her good reasons why a cat would be good. Then say one bad thing and find a solution to the problem!

Try this: name the critter after your father or someone your mother loves very, very much.
I named a puppy after my father and it did the trick!
