Hiya all,

Im dying to get a guinea pig or rabbit.. ive had both when i was younger but it was a lonnnnnngggg time ago..

Just wondering if anyone knows which breed makes a better pet??

Your help or advice would be much appreciated!

We had rabbits - they were ok most of the time, but one of them got a bit aggressive. Never had a guinea pig - have relatives that keep them and they seem to get on fine with them.

I've heard you can train a rabbits to use a litter tray.. i wonder if you can with guinea pigs too??

Its true of hamsters

Rabbits all day

or get both?

Please! Not on this thread!!

Lol i know you can with hamsters but my mate has a house rabbit and his uses a litter tray to do it doo doo in lol..

I guess they just need the scent, that's all.

...thank god this thread isnt about cats

Poached or fried?


Oh I just got what you said - I am a slow lass

we got to guinea pigs there ACE!! grumpy lil sods heeh!!
oscar and grover!

great with kids too

I thought they made cute little noise guinea pigs - I'd get them for the noise alone - rabbits are a bit quiet unless they are growling at you or thumping their back leg.

At least you got there in the end

I could think of something rude to say right now but it wouldn't be proper

Rabbits

Oooh ya - left a bit

But what do Guinea pigs do

At least Rabbits can hump like, erm, well rabbits - or get myxomatosis.

They even got a cartoon character based on them

I'd rather have guinea pig than rabbit.

*biting tongue again*

Forget Rabbits or Guinea Pigs, get a Ferret.

Cool ferret. Never knew they could be kept as pets. I thought they were more like a cat, now - more like a dog, as in they fetch things. Do they respond to their names as well?

I'd get a Rabbit for sure.... And go for a FrenchLop. Amazing pets and really good for having indoors as well as outdoors.

iam keeping out of this.. i might say the wrong thing... the gutters getting mighty close lol.......

A French Lop sounds painful doesn't it?

Always had rabbits and guinea pigs! You can have BOTH, they will live happily together (mine always did). Put two females together tho, males will hump each others brains out!!!!
My sis had a house wabbit and he used a litter tray, dont know if pigs will tho!!

we have a lionhead called minx and cannot and could not get him to shit in a tray.likes to ge right next to my pond now.have not been ou the back much cos its cold and you wanna see the size of the pile.so much out of aliitle rabbit !

we had a male rabbit and guinea pig at same time, the rabbit got into humping the guinea pig, the guinea big didn't half squeal, now i know where they got the pig bit from. Dam it was funny.

He got his nuts chopped fo9r that, poor barstard.

Ha ha i'm likin the thought of a guineapig.. that cute squeek.. ive been to look at some to day.... awwwww sooooo sweet

Get a ferret and a rabbit and you can sit and watch them play.

thats a nasty attitude for a supposed grown up
oh well!! enough said

a girl at work tells me Rabbits are better

I'm a bit like a ferret, always get a bite.

pathetic person to write something like that, that is very cruel!

you go girl!!
another Animal lover
Great!!!

what???? The bloke is just joking!!

Balls to it...I'll throw in a cat and a rottweiler into the mix!

its not a funny joke and that is another sad comment!

do u have a german shepherd tilly i love them i used to have one when i was little x

get a life,,,, its a joke.

Ive seen people walking them on a leach.

Never had a guinea pig, rabbit or ferret! I just stick to the regular pooch.

ive got a life tar crnt u find sutin abi more funny 2 talk aba never make a comedian u wanna watch frankie boyle, russel howard lee mac those pple u mite get somewere hahaha

ive had rabbits theyve bit me sometimes tho maybe because they needed neutiring tho was only young when had them so didnt no. i like guinea pigs more there noises are funny there much cuter but very shy nervous animals so you would have to handle them regularly to get it used to u. i dont think u can train a guinea pig 2 use a litter tray.
