If I were to loose one of my 3 I am thinking of a shorter lived animal such as a rat, if I couldn't find another senior pig to adopt. Can a rat live along side 2 pigs if they are kept separated by C&C cage? I am thinking about how to avoid loneliness for the remaining pig or pigs.

They definitely cannot live together. If both cages are truly secure, they likely could live near each other. Do note that some species are carriers of illnesses detrimental to guinea pigs (and vice versa) so you would have to do some research on potential health concerns.
