Well...... I have a rabit and a guinea pig and they both love each other but you have to put them together at a very young age (ask local pet shop on what to do there). Is can be ok and in another way it is not ok becasue when it's not ok rabbits some times have a dessese that is in their lungs and it can not afect the rabbit or other rabbits but if can affect the guinea pig and can cause illness and could die. In the other hands you can put them together because some people say (there ment to be together) and some rabbits dont have that dessese............ But you could be like me and risk it.......If you do put them together I would cheek on them mabey 3 times a day.......Hope this works!!! Don't be irresponsible pet owners.

∙ 12y agoWell I guess you can... but I think the Guineapig would rather have a real animal, and one of its own kind.
I, as a vetrinarian, recommend that you buy another guineapig and put that in the cage with it. However, if you cannot afford it, I would probably stick with the rabbits fur.
Hope I have helped you, today! (:
Have a good day.
Sincerely,
An animal-obsessed Vet (:

Can you put guinea pigs in the same cage as hamsters?
NO guinea pigs should not be housed with any other animals except for their own kind. It would most likely end in one (most likely the guinea pig since they are more docile) being seriously injured or killed. Goddesskieryn: The two animals have seriously different habitat and food needs. While the guinea pig needs extra vitamin C in its diet, that much sugar would be bad for the rats. Not to mention that guinea pigs have rather bad eye sight, and rats being very good climbers need many levels in their cages. Guinea pigs living with multiple levels and bad eyesight equals a falling piggy. If they fall from say a third level they could be seriously injured. Also guinea pigs need long open spaces to run and play, i believe the rule of thumb is something like 7.5ft of space for up to 2 pigs.

Do guinea pigs and dwarf rabbits get along?
It is best that guinea pigs are kept with other guinea pigs rather than rabbits as rabbits do not speak "cavy" and guinea pigs like to have others of their own species to talk to. Rabbits tend to spray, and guinea pigs are animals that like to be clean and as hygienic as possible. They also cant share food, as rabbit food contains an anti-coccidostat (ACS) which will shorten a guinea pigs lifespan by poisoning it's internal organs. Although they would probably be OK together, it will be better for the guinea pig if they are kept apart- having said that, there are cases of rabbits and guinea pigs getting on very well and living happily together. It depends on how the guinea pig and the rabbit get on. Hope this was helpful :)
Do ginnie pigs like apples?
Yes, they can do ok with dogs. The hard part is making sure the dogs do not want to eat the piggy. You should introduce a piggy carefully to a dog. This way the piggy will not be frightened or hurt.
