Guinea Pigs and Security Alarm Systems?

I also should mention that it takes A LOT of movement from smaller objects to set off the motion sensor. I've had garland fall or sway from leaving a ceiling fan on accidentally and it doesn't set it off (you can tell because the motion sensor light will change color). I don't know if I'd risk it with guinea pigs, but if it was an only option, it might be okay.

After his house was broken into my boss installed a set of security cameras in his home that he can access via his smart phone. He has set it so that if any suspicious movements occur, the phone immediately texts him the photo. (This results in him receiving lots of cute photos of his dogs, really.)

To prevent burglaries, he has also put sticks in the windows (so no one can slide it open with a crowbar.)
