Hi there I wrote to you about my experience with a Ferret and Guinea Pig
but .
Guinea Pigs can make wonderful pets. Guinea Pigs and Hamsters were the
only pets I was allowed to have growing up. Guinea Pigs can be trained to
use a litter box. They will also learn their names and learn to come to
their names. Atleast mine did and when I was a young girl I'd rather play
with my pets than other kids so my pets got lots of attention! Which
Guinea Pigs/Cavies need a lot of attention. Just remember if the Cavy
isn't held much then it won't like being held and could possibly end up
being mean. Just like a Ferret they need to come out and play. Too much
time in a cage is very bad for them. Also Cavies need about two and a
half square feet per Cavy! Just don't let the Ferret(s) and Cavy play
together. It's definitely not a good thing. Hope I've helped!
Fuzzy Smiles!
