Ferrets are not always great pets. They cannot be kept in a cage all the time, and they can be VERY destructive when out. The dig up carpets, trash woodwork,and poop and pee in any corner they can find.
They smell even when descented and need frequent baths. The area the ferret is kept in smells.
Maybe the parents know all this and do not want to deal with it!!

Well, If your parents dont want you to have a ferret then you might just have to exept that. Plus you already have 2 pets. Maybe your parents think thats enough. If you keep pushing them to get you one then they might just get angery and get mad when the topic comes up. Give them a little while to think. Keep doing those extra chores. Maybe then they will get you one.

she thinks you have a lot of pets??
here we have 2 dogs, 4 cats, a chinchilla, 2 rats, and im saving for a ferret cage and then my parents will get me the ferret. arent they just the cutiest? well all pets are....
------------ways to convinve you parents -section one-------------
show them how much you kn ow about what you want to get .
tell then how often you will clean the cage.
where the cage will be.
you will pay for some of it?
do extra around the house.
how it will not bother them and how they will never see it.
do extra research and make inprovments around the house thet your parents dont ask you to do
----------the good side of ferets- part 2 ------------------
ferrets can learn there own names.
learn to use a litter box.
love to play.
get along with dogs and cats.
can be taken for walks
be in ferret shows.
give you kisses
will follow you around
and will play with just about anything.
they will love you very much and consider you as his leader.
----------the bad part of ferret - part3 ----------------
they can bite hard i trained.
they can get into cuboards and drawers even if they are closed.
like to hide your stuff such as car keys, socks, etc. whatever they find they will take and hind.
they love to hind in couch and tear up stuffed animals.
they can get through small holes and like to burrow.
they cost alot for accesiors and cage.
need at least 4 housrs of free time around the house.
you have to ferret proof the house.
a small area will not be good enough for a ferret. they need a large area to roam durning play time.
baby gates work well for blocking off areas where they can go.
-----------------good luck to you and your ferret-- if oyu get one----------
------------smells and poop----------\
they need a litter box were ever the ferret goes. and when they are spayed and fixed they do not smell. do not wash them to many times or they will get skin problems. 2 times a motnh is good. a clean cage is a good smell.

research, i wouldnt let my kid get a pet, unless they know almost everything about it.
That shows deication and commitment to that animal.
i started with 1: 8gallon fish tank, done research and now im fish expert.
Who knows it worked for me, maybe for you to.
