Clean to get a Cat

Today I did a lot. Mom and Dad don't seem totally against the idea of getting a cat, but they still haven't said yes. Today, to show them that I can handle another pet, I took extra care to make my pets happy. I fed them all on time, and I also cleaned up after them super well. Today being Saturday, I had to clean my room. To impress my mom, I did a great job. I am messy, but I don't have too much stuff, so I have a place for everything. I just don't put my stuff away. Today, instead of tossing my covers over my bed, I made it neat and smooth. I didn't just throw the stuff on the floor in my ottoman, I actually put it away. When Mom came in, everything was immaculate. I felt proud. I think I can handle a cat.
