It's tough. Comparing to Hamsters. I think They are. They are at the same level.

I swear when i approached them they would growl and say my name - Rachelllllll :tickedoff:

I love my hammies just as much as my piggies..actually I think hammies are my favourite rodent O0

Piggies are thought to not be rodents either.

So hamsters are my favourite true rodent ;D

Guinea pigs are rodents O0

I believe that they're not..

They examined the sequence of the complete mitocondrial DNA (mtDNA) of 15 animals and concluded mtDNA of guinea pig is closer to those of rabbit, horse, and human rather than to that of rodent. The different analytical approaches made the same results, which says guinea pig is different from a rodent!

Theres other sites too.. so yeah it's debatable
