How do I wash my rabbit?

Start at the rabbit’s rump and work your way forward, wetting the fur to the skin. Do not wet their head unless told to do so by your vet, and ensure you do not get water or shampoo in their eyes or ears. If you are using shampoo, lather it in and rinse off thoroughly.

Can you safely bathe a rabbit?

Rabbits are meticulously clean and almost never need a bath. Bathing them can even be harmful, since they tend to panic in water and may fracture a limb or their spine if they thrash around. But it’s usually not safe or beneficial to wet down the bunny’s whole body.

What soap is safe for rabbits?

If you do, please be aware that shampoos or soap are not necessary. If you do want to use some, only mild unscented baby shampoo is recommended. The better solution for us was the dry bath. You grab a towel and put your bunny carefully in a position where you can reach the soiled area.

Can you use baby wipes on rabbits?

Use baby wipes. Baby wipes are the easiest method of cleaning your rabbit without bathing it. You want a wipe that is strong enough to clean your bunny without tearing, and which is soft so that it won’t hurt your bunny’s skin. Some wipes come fortified with vitamin E or aloe. These are fine to use on a rabbit.

What soap can I use to wash my bunny?

Use soap only if absolutely necessary. Fill a small bowl with warm water and add a few drops of gentle baby shampoo or castile soap. Dip a cotton ball in the solution and gently cleanse around the rabbit’s anus, taking care to wet only the area that needs to be cleaned.
