Question
how if possible would u bathe a bunny and second i put some aspen shavings in my rabbit cage and i put some kiind of bedding in the cage for him to nest in it looks like shredded egg cartons if u know what kind im talking about can u tell me if its safe for him

Answer
No, it's really not a good idea to bathe your bunny. The experience is usually far too stressful and could make him or her very ill. Brushing your bunny is a good idea, and if you think he or she needs some freshening up, take a damp (not wet) cloth and give your bunny a once-over.

I've never heard of the bedding you describe, so unfortunately, I can't tell you whether it's safe or not.
