Guinea pigs are adorable animals, and make ideal pets for children, and adults. They love to be cuddled, and are easy to care for.They are best kept in pairs of either sex.Pigs can be kept inside or out but don't change from one to another.
I do not like putting guinea pigs with rabbits, they have a very different diet, and rabbits even if babies can sit on a baby guinea pig and injure them.
