I've been wanting to adopt a rabbit of my own for a long time now. Recently, I've been looking at different rabbit rescues/shelters/humane societies online and I found this small rescue that has a lot of rabbits and is run by only one person. I emailed the lady and asked her if she needed any help with the rabbits and whatnot, and she said that she needed some fosterers. Well, I said, that would be great. And she replied saying there was this female that needed fostering and I got really excited.
So now I want to foster a rabbit. It's temporary, easier, shorter, and a great trial time to see if a rabbit is a pet that I really want and can afford!
One major problem: my parents said no. When I asked them a while back, maybe 4-5 months ago, they said no to adopting a rabbit. I asked them right after if I could FOSTER a rabbit instead. Still, they said no.
Since that was a while ago, I was thinking maybe I could ask them again. I really have to convince them though!
So what kinds of things should I discuss with them? What points should I bring up? How can I convince them? My birthday is coming up and it would be a really great birthday-ish "gift" to be allowed to foster a rabbit - since I love love love animals, especially rabbits. They say that I'm busy, but I really am not! I have two guinea pigs of my own that I take exceptional care of and I still have lots of free time. I can totally handle a rabbit, I know I can.
But how can I convince my parents??!!
