Agree on getting two with a large cage. Our first one would talk to our parakeet. But, when the bird died, the guiena pig started losing weight and not eating. When we brought home a larger cage and a second g. pig, he perked right back up.
Watch out on getting two males. Our pigs, every now and then, would get into nasty fights. I'm not too sure if getting two females would be any better. Of course, a male/female pair would turn you into a breeder, so that's not much of a better option.
I refuse to join any club that would have me as a member.
