The reality of cage farming is a large-scale animal cruelty operation far beyond our imagination. Scared, abused and stressed, animals in cages are subjected to often short and extremely miserable lives. From cage to slaughter, many of them never see the light of day. Their dirty, cramped cages barely leave them room to move, to spread their legs or wings and many caged animals have to fight over the little space that they have. In many farms, you would find animals left dead next to their terrified live companions, posing not only a health hazard but proving the inhumanity of this practice. On September 11th, 2019 the EU Petition officially closed with over 1,000,000 citizens signing against cages! 

On September 11th, 2019 the official European Citizens’ Initiative closed successfully reaching over 1 million citizens who supported the cause. Now, the signatures will go through an official validation procedure to ensure their eligibility. Finally, the validated signatures will be handed over to the EU Commission after which they have to answer our call. But we will not wait. Every day we strive to make a difference for animals.
