We have a guinea pig which occupies a hutch in the back garden. |

And why not Allan, my cats are rather fond of mice and often bring them to visit ;-) :-D :-D :-D |

I think, rather than the mice being pets, you've got an infestation :-S |

Can the guinea pig get away from the mice? It may well be suffering because of their visits. |

Once upon a time I had a rabbit. One day I had an unexpected visit from the little girl I babysat, she asked "Please can I see your rabbit" so we went to the hutch. |

Sharron, yes the GP can get away from the mice and she doesn't seem stressed by them. She is used to sharing her hutch, as, until a month or so ago, we did have a companion GP who unfortunately developed a tumour and had to be put to sleep :-( |

I think you will have to be really careful with the hutch because mice don't have sphincters and what comes out of mice comes out anywhere they go whereas rats certainly have latrine areas. Do guinea pigs as well? I can't remember because I last had a guinea pig in the early sixties but I don't think she will want poop in her dining room any more than you would! |

Would that be to keep the flies out of the kitchen? |

Joy, not to mention the number of bobtail lizards that we have found in the hutch over the years. Apart from a liking for snails, the lizards love the fruit and vegies that we feed the GPs with :-D |
