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.

More details

I volunteer for a small animal rescue and have seen tragic cases of small animals being kept in unsuitable conditions. We need the Government to take action to ban the sale of small animal enclosures that do not meet the minimum enclosure sizes set by Government.
