At least in Switzerland they can. There is a law which is a part of a legislative push to grant “social rights” to
pets that tend to get lonely. Guinea pigs, for example, are herd
animals, so having at least one furry companion to share a cage with
should supposedly boost their quality of life.
But it’s unlikely that two guinea pigs will die at the exact same
time, pet owners can find themselves in a legally sticky situation when
one of their animals passes away. Fortunately, there are now rent-a-guinea pig services in Switzerland that provide partners to live with lonesome guinea pigs for the remainder of their lives.
Some other pets that are forbidden from living in
isolation in Switzerland are Goldfish, Parrots and Cats.
