Most Indian Ringnecks aren't social with other non-IRNs by nature. But I have seen a few that are very social with other birds; it's a hit and miss.

Mine love my cats, if that helps any. I've never had any experience with guinea pigs, though, so I would have no idea. :/

My irn was best friends with our dog he would call him to the cage and they would play and bark with one another was very funny to watch good luck finding compatiable birds for your aviary

My breeding birds share with my Galahs, I have some quails and bantam chickens in the bottom to keep the cages clean.

I had rabbits and guinea pigs in the bottom of my aviary,oscar my male would steal their food and kinda make a game out of it. the only thing is be careful that the guinea pigs dont dig and let the birds out.
