Hi all!
Just wondering which people think is the better pet for children, guinea pigs or rabbits?
My children and 4 and 8. We've had both guinea pigs and rabbits in the past but they were ones I'd rescued when they needed rehoming. They'd never been handled etc so weren't very tame. Also my children were a lot younger so weren't very active with them.
Now the kids are older and we have cats and reptiles that they're both very good with. They help with cleaning out and feeding.
They've asked me if we can get a rabbit or some guinea pigs and I feel they'd both be responsible with helping to look after them. At the moment I'd only like to take either rabbits or guinea pigs on, not both.
We do get foxes our way so I'd be keeping them in an indoor cage at night but I have a large run for outside.
So just curious as to what which you have and what you'd recommend?
Thanks
