Oh no, I don’t think this is a good idea.
Glad you asked! I would not advise it. Lord forbid anything happen, but if it did the bun could kill the pig. They aren’t really “play date” creatures either, bunnies are bonded to other bunnies for long term companionship. It’s not like kids where you just bring them to the playground once a week and everyone plays nice and gets along

Probably not a good idea.
Rabbits and guinea pigs arent the same species, and they cant commnicate. Rabbits use humping to show dominanc and can pull out the piggies fur and generally just bully it .
Also bonding animals that wont be permantly living together is generally a bad idea (I assume even if a rabbit/guinea pig bond worked, you wouldnt be leaving your bunny there)

That being said,IF you’re rabbit is very laid back and doesnt mind traveling (some really hate it, others are okay) you could bring your rabbit and let it out in the same room as the guinea pig(making sure there are ZERO signs of aggression from either party (particularly the rabbit, they are very powerful next to tiny delicate piggies!) and constant supervision woudl be needed, and you’d need to bring hay and a water bowl with you for JoJo which may make actually hanging out with your friend a bit impossible

Bunnies and guinea pigs should not be put together. It’s a misconception that they can be cage mates because they simply aren’t suited. For a start, they have different ways of communicating. It’s like having a room mate that doesn’t speak your language. You’re not going to bond. Secondly, rabbits can accidently kill a pig with their strong legs. They also have different dietary requirements.

Also, please note that you can’t seperate a bonded pair so even if you did attempt to bond them (which you can’t, but also worth noting if you plan to bond with another bun later), you’d have to seperate then which would be cruel. A bonded pair shouldn’t be split.

I think that’s wise

I had a bonding that I worked on for a bit and eventually gave up on (two rabbits). I rehomed one and kept my female. I started looking into getting a guinea pig (not to bond with the bunny, but to have separate) and I realized that they actually are a lot of work like rabbits lol. I assumed that pigs just get on with one another but nope, they have a while bonding process too. Anyway, what I am trying to say is that I totally get the urge to want to socialize your animal, but we do have to understand that they do not have the same social mannerisms that humans do.

Thank you for your help Dface!

JoJo has travelled a couple places with me overnight and doesn’t get unsettled in the slightest. Even if we go on an outing just for a couple hours I bring her litter box, water bowl, hay, X pen, and a couple toys. If I bring her today I would leave her in her X pen the whole time and on top of that she is a super friendly bunny. That being said after reading other people’s replies I still don’t think I will take her today.

You could still take her with you if she enjoys it,  just don’t put her with the piggie!

I had a rabbit who was very social and nosey and was pretty much able to be let out in a room with other pets (always supervised) and they behaved kind of like toddlers(they just did what they were doing and ignored the other one)
So at one stage I’d have hamsters, hedgehogs a dog and a bunny mooching about a room, ignoring each other.
This isnt something I’d say is a recommended activity just trying to emphasize;

It’s all about knowing your pets, and always airing on the side of cation ! If you think theres anyone getting irritated, its best to stop
