Have a look at this site http://www.angelfire.com/mi/FAST/bunniesandpig gies.html some good information about housing them together.

Definatley not. Rabbits and guinea pigs are very social but not with each other. They have different diets and can't live together. Its just a common misconception. Also, a rabbit can easily kick a guinea pig and kill it. Its happened.

Please don't do it!

Iasked the question about my last rabbit as i thought maybe it could be to do with the breed of rabbit, so you sugest i dont do it.
