Guineas cannot use wheels or balls because they are dangerous for their backs.
only if guinea pigs are considered ''critters''
Guinea pigs, like all animals, need exercise or their muscles will atrophe (go soft). This is the reason tanks for guinea pigs usually have a wheel that the little animals can run around in for exercise.
Guinea pigs should not have a wheel in there cage because it isn't good for there backs NEVER put a guinea pig in an exercise wheel! Guinea pigs are not designed to be able to bend backwards and forcing their spines into this position could break the spine and paralyse the guinea pig. Your pig should be kept in a hutch where it has enough room to run and exercise without the need for a wheel.
No guinea pigs cannot there wouldn't be enough space and guinea pigs aren't supposed to use exercise wheels that are usely in hampster cages (because they can easily hurt themselves).
