Guinea pigs require at least 7ft sq if they're living by themselves, and at least 7.5ft sq in a pair, more than this would be better though. Upper levels do not count.

Can a female guinea pig be in the same cage with a female dwarf rabbit?

Lots of people say rabbits can be kept in the same cage as guinea pigs but it's very dangerous and should never happen. Even if your rabbit is friendly or just a bunny the guinea pig will get bullied. This will also lead to lack of the space and the guinea pig may be stepped on or crowded in the cage. Rabbits need a bigger cage, a bigger run and different medicine and vaccinations which affects the guinea pigs well being. If you are looking for a partner for your piggy try another lonely female or a neutered male. But guinea pigs should always be kept with another guinea pig and no rabbits!
