Question
Can i bath my bunny? what should i do? how should i do this? what should i use? do they like baths?

Answer
Hello, I have read some places that you can bath your rabbit and I have also read some places that you cant, But I bath my rabbits, You should use luke-warm water in a nice big dish and put your rabbit in and you should hold him/her as they will try to jump out and you can use babies shampoo I use that for my rabbits and put some on your hand and rub it on the rabbit [ becareful not to put any shampoo in there eyes] then pour the water from the dish out and rinse the rabbit not in the dish maybe on the grass [ remember to rinse very well] then dry it with a towel [ you dont have to dry it very well as it will soon dry in the sun, Rabbits don't like baths my rabbits struggle to jump away, [ Remember to bath your rabbit on a sunny day and not on a cold or rainy day and remember when your rabbits fur is wet it will look compacted and will soon dry and come normal, soft, silky, and lovely again so dont get worried as the first time I bath my rabbits I was worried there fur wont come right but it did come right after it dried, I hope this helped, thanks from Sarah.
