If your allergic to fur, would a guinea pig be a bad choice of pet?
Yes, Allergies to pets with fur or feathers are common, so a guinea pig (having "fur") wouldn't be the best choice. There are hairless breeds of dogs and cats that are suitable for allergy sufferers. Reptiles are also a good choice.
