My little sister's birthday is coming up and she's DESPERATE to get a cat. My other sister, mum and me also really want one. My dad isn't so keen though. We used to have 5 cats, when I was born we still had three and two years ago our last cat sadly died. Since we've got 3 gorgeous rabbits, who run about the garden. Our next door neighbour got a cat a couple of years ago, him and the rabbits are great friends with him but he gets upset when they don't play with him like cats would. He comes and visits us in our house a lot because his owners are away from home quite a lot.
If we did get a cat, mum says we'd probably do what she did before and raise a whole litter who've been found with their mum from the Celia Hammond Trust.
It's not that my dad doesn't like cats, he loves them and adored the cats we had. It's just that he worries they won't get on with the rabbits and might not get on okay with the next door neighbours cat. He also says that he "Enjoys seeing birds in the garden again". Is there anything I could say to him in order to persuade him, but without being too obvious?
