When i was very young we bought found a rabbit in the coal shed and when nobody came forward my grandparents kept her. My Grandparents already had two piggies that were mine (i wasn't allowed any at my house as we didnt have a garden!) called honey and candy. Roger (the rabbit turned out to be a girl though lol) was taken to the vets for a check up to make sure there was nothing wrong with her and the vet said that its always a good idea to have guinea pigs as cage mates. I honestly didn't know different until you've just said that its a bad thing to do but we haven't had guinea pigs since honey and candy passed away so I guess Ive never had to research anything about them. We always been told that if you have a rabbit, get a piggie too! Our three lived completely fine together. There was no fighting. no arguements or anything. They all curled up together at night too.
I tired it because my rabbit was lonely and the vet said I could put it with a piggie. My bun bullied my piggie, so I've separated them (got another piggie and will get another bun soon.) It only really works if they have grown up together. :/

Re: I'm so shocked
I think it's still too much of a risk even if they have grown up together. If a fox or something came into the garden and spooked big old bunny 1 scared kick could kill little piggy outright.

Re: I'm so shocked
Not to mention the Bordatella risk, all it would take is the immune system to weaken slightly for the piggie to become very ill or just drop down dead
Personally I feel this much more of a reason to not even "try" it.

Re: I'm so shocked
I was going to put about that, or do a link to your previous comment thing with your list, but...

To be honest I had to much to drink last night and typing that seemed to much like hard work. Completely agree though, and impressive list by the way.

I would neveer risk it either.
