That's Not Allowed!?

I don't know if this is in the right section. BUT, I went to the pet shop (local not big chain) where I got my noodle from last year...Before I was rescue friendly obviously. They had rabbits in with guinea pigs :/ and when I asked like who was boys, who was girls, I added in do you always keep rabbits with the Guineas? She said it's because they've never seen so many rabbits! So they have to many rabbits and not enough enclosures :/ do you think maybe they're not aware of the dangers of keeping them together? Also they can't have enough room in there

The lady who owns the store had no idea obviously. If it wasn't for the fact Jake my partner would have gone mad at me I would have bought every single guineapig and maybe even rabbit in there lol ! Just to make sure they're getting the right care. I know they feed all rabbits and guineapig in there the homemade muesli that they make themselves.

Just can't stop thinking about it! Is there anything I should do?

You could take along a few printouts for her to read. The RSPCA says that it's not recommended to keep guineas and rabbits together.

Doe's the shop have problems separating the male and female rabbits? Can't see why they have too many to handle! Maybe they need advice on sexing rabbits too!

One of local shops keeps rabbits and guinea pigs together. I told them the reasons why it is no longer considered good practice and they just said that they have always done it!
