Ban the sale of inappropriately sized pet cages and tanks
The majority of pet stores sell cages and tanks for hamsters, rabbits, fish, and other small pets, which don't meet minimum size requirements. The production of these small cages also leads to re-selling, meaning that more and more animals are being forced to live in tiny habitats.

You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action. We're not sure what you'd like to happen. In particular, we're not sure what you mean by "minimum size requirements".
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do. For example, you could start a new petition asking the Government and Parliament to change the law so that it specifies minimum size requirements for the cages and tanks of common pets.
