Ok, a crested guinea pig and, I'm guessing you are referring to an abyssian guinea pig (not a cat) CAN breed. They are NOT two different species of animals. They are different BREEDS. Both are guinea pigs, so they can breed. Think of a lab (dog) and a dachshund (dog)........they, too, are different BREEDS, but the same SPECIES (dog)......so, they can also breed.
There are many different breeds. However, you can't just choose one solely on the breed, because each Guinea Pig has its own personality. However, the most suitable ones for beginners are the Teddy and American breeds, as they usually are easier to train and have a more laid-back personality. I hope this answers your question.

Well how much work are you willing to put in it? If you are going to not brush it get the crested. If you are going to brush it get Abyssinian. But remember. Don't brush it after you give it a bath. The hair will fall out! Hope I helped!!!
yes i have some american and abyssinian guinea pigs the american has 3 babies and looks little rough an curls and its father is another breed of it
An abyssinian guinea pig has Rossets in its fur such as the images below:
Well I have 2 Abyssinian guinea pigs and there is no like Abyssinian guinea pig store as far as I know so I guess just keep looking
your guinea pig may be a hybrid (not a purebred), this means it would be part white crested part other guinea pig breed. this would explain why the guinea pigs fur has white.
I know a few.... white crested, teddy, American, abyssinian, peruvian, silkie, abyssinian satin, coronet, peruvian satin, silkie satin, teddy satin, texal.
If you are talking about breed of guinea pig, The best breed, In my personal experience would be the Abyssinian. They not only have a cute hair-do but they have a great personality and are really smart! The other breed of guinea pig that makes the best pet would also be the Teddy, although their fur can be a bit difficult to look after.
It depends what you like! :) I like Abyssinian's, also Tortoise Shell's and American's. If you look up on the internet for guinea pig breeds you will see all of them there. All guinea Pigs act the same and have similar behaviour pattern, so, I guess, there is no best breed of Guinea Pig.
The best guinea pig to keep as a pet is either the American or the abyssinian. Although if you have the time and patience to groom your guinea pig every night the peruvian, silkie, texel or coronet may be the perfect breed for you. If you have a busy lifestyle and won't get much time to be with your guinea pig, then the best guinea pig for you would be the American breed. They cope well with being alone, but they love listerning to music! So keep that radio on! Although I highly recommend the Abyssinian guinea pig as they are very intelegent and love company or just to cuddle up with you on the couch!
I have the same type of Guinea Pig. She too has a Mohawk. There are called Abyssinian Guinea Pigs.

You can't breed it if there is not another animal for it to breed with.
