Bathing rabbits

Question
The other day i washed my rabbit. She didnt really mind being washed and she has been fine since. Should i continue washing her?

Answer
Dear Tayla,

You should never bathe a rabbit.  I have known many to die from the stress.  They stay very clean on their own, and do not need baths.  If your bunny gets soiled, here are instructions for safe cleaning:
