Well me personally I would go with the hairless rat, I have 4 of them right now. They are very good pets, very social, and are a lot smarter. A skinny pig (hairless guinea pig) is not as social, I have not owned one but my husband worked with guinea pigs at work. They would just squeal and run away. My rats/other rats will come up just to say hi, beg for treats, always wont to play and get attencion. They are very intelligent, they can learn tricks and can learn there name. A guinea pig is a good pet too, just to me they can't stand up to a rat. If I was you I would go with the rat. Once you get one, you will wont more.
