How old is blackjack?? If he still has a while to live I suggest getting him a friend, otherwise go for the rabbit, but they do way better in pairs

Yes I would go for another guinea pig if I was you to keep him company.

Get another guinea pig. Rabbits should not be kept with guinea pigs anyway. It is not fair on them. Rabbits love to groom and snuggle together, GPs do not. Rabbits can also bully and harrass GPs away from food and injure them with one hefty kick, even in play. Rabbits may also carry Bordetella bronchiseptica or Pasteurella which can prove fatal to guinea pigs. Apart from all that, why keep two different species together which cannot communicate? How lonely, especially for the piggy! Nah! Get another pig!
