Petition to ban small cages

[Maz]

I don't know if this one has been seen before but it's specifically to have the small unsuitable cages banned. Started by someone who runs a rescue. It has about 6,000 signatures. The post by the guy who runs the rescue and who started the petition, is the one below, from Hamster welfare website. It's quite moving in places. Only Uk residents can sign this particular petition unfortunately.

Please Sign The Petition to Ban Small Cages - HamsterWelfare.com | Welfare Advice – Evidence – Care Information

Please support and sign the Government Petition to ban small cages. The community have gathered together and with more signatures a minimum cage size law could be made, effectively banning small cages. Here's a message from the person who started this petition...

Petition: Ban the sale of small animal enclosures that do not meet specified standards

I would like new legislation to prevent the sale of unsuitable animal enclosures which are currently available to pet owners. The Government should set minimum enclosure sizes for small animals in domestic settings, and ban the sale of enclosures that do not meet these standards.

I think i signed it as well but signed it again (and forwarded it) as not sure.

I found I had already signed it before as it told me that when I tried to sign. There was another similar one recently.
