I'd say about 13. You need to consider that guinea pigs can live for up to eight years and if you will still have the time then to look after it and give it the attension it needs.

It is considered a senior by the age of 5, in guinea pig years it would probably be in it's mid 60's.

Well, guinea-pigs are VERY friendly and they NEVER bite and they LOVE to be held and they are friends to everyone. They are very cuddley, so I would say about 5 years old and up.
