Although to be fair I don't live in my own home so I'd also have to get permission anyways. I don't know that those I live with would be too thrilled for me to get even more pets so soon even if I could find space for a proper enclosure and build one

I'm sure if I keep letting myself go down this path I could fully logic my way into a list of reasons why it would be perfectly reasonable to get guinea pigs too, but for the time being I'll just have to stop.

Ideally you need 12sq ft for 2 guinea pigs although bigger is better. I have 4, 2 sows and 2 boars, (see my piggies thread for more) and I have 2 12sq ft c&c cages stacked. If you have a garden you could have a hutch and put it in a shed during cooler months. But be warned they go through a lot of hay!
