Is there any way we can start some sort of petition to shut down rodent farms and/or make them ilegal?

I don't know if that would be possible as most of these 'farms' are in Eastern Europe so I have been told. If there was a concerted education campaign to persuade people not to buy animals from those larger pet stores that might make an impact? But thing is, people want to buy small pets from somewhere and it is not easy to find breeders. The pet shops sell small animals usually at a loss because they can usually sell the whole set up, food, toys etc to the same customer when they buy one and that is where their profit lies.
