Exclamation Join the campain for getting rid of Cotten bedding.

Hello,

I am starting a campaign to get rid of cotton bedding in shops once and for all. I want to make February the awareness month for the dangers of cotton bedding with hamsters.
I have sent several emails to stores that I know sell cotton bedding. One of the companies didn't reply another I had a 'argument' with for about two weeks and the other banned cotton bedding but I still see it in their stores. I have mentioned the campaign to my dad who works with the Pets at Home chief vet.
This campaign will be mentioned on Youtube tomorrow so simply say 'Ban cotton bedding and make February the hamster awareness month for banning cotton bedding' in the reply section below to help me show people how many people want February as an awareness month and to ban cotton bedding.

Please reply

Thank you, Gimleyand Meeko

There are already loads and loads of these campaigns and petitions around if you search the internet which you can add your support too. It needs done all the time not just in one month so better to go out and lend your support to already established groups.

Ok, what I will do is check around the internet and I will try to add my support to these websites to ban the bedding. I think you are right we need more time than just a month.
