Question
hi,
just wanted to know your opinion on keeping rabbits and GP's together? whats the facts of keeping them together, and tips such as feeding etc?i own a neverland dwarf and its living with a adult GP
also, will a rabbit thats neutred be any less different to if not, what i mean is will it stop becoming aggressive during maturity, or does it only stop them having babies?

cheers


Answer
Hello Scott,
I would not put a rabbit or guinea pig together. Not only do they require different food nutrients but a rabbit could injure a guinea pig by kicking him. There's also no guarantee that your guinea pig and rabbit will get the nutrition they need because you can't determine how much they ate of their food and what. A neutered rabbit will be less aggressive towards other rabbits and act a lot calmer, but the rabbit and guinea pig should be seperated and given their own room.
