As a starter job do you recommend working weekends? I know the maximum hours I can work are 2 hours on weekends and Sundays and 5 hours on weekends. I was wondering about pet sitting but I'd have to ask people I know (obviously) I might ask my grandma one day if she needed help when she is out because she has a Jack Russel. I get £2 when I walk my grandma's dog. Maybe I'll get £5 or £10 if I look after her for about 4-5 hours? I was thinking about working in the local shops but I'm pretty unsocial and quite bad at cleaning. But I can learn. I always wanted a job when I turned 13 and I don't know why. It just seems fun. Also if I start saving early I can afford my dream house heh. Saving is hard for me but I'm trying to be more mature for my age so I don't end up doing something stupid later on, like start drugs. Sorry for this long message I just want to prove to my family that I can be mature. It is hard with hormones because some days I kick off and cry. Which I know is unacceptable. So my choices: Pet sit or work at a local shop. Unless I can work at a local pet shop! THAT WILL BE FANTASTIC. I would love to work at Petsathome! I might even get a staff discount! :O This will be amazing. I'm so excited to start working. Plus it will look good on my future college applications and job applications.For a 13 y/o girl, my advice is to not worry about earning money right now and just focus on school. That's what I told my kids anyway. If they needed to raise money for something they wanted, I paid them to do extra stuff around the house, or the neighbors invited them to babysit. Enclosures can be relatively fun, easy, and cheap to construct. No sense in buying an expensive one off-the-shelf. See if someone can help you build one. As far as lights and other accessories... I get some really good deals from folks selling them on CraigsList from time to time. I bought another CHE from someone last week and only paid $5 for it. Works fine.
