GUINEA PIG - BATHING

Guinea pigs don't need bath in routine until they are soiled or you want to take them for show purpose. It is stressful for them but if you are good with bathing them, they will not have much troubles. You can use baby shampoo or mild kitten shampoo or soaps with aloe vera and neem based. Guinea pigs need frequent bath when they are infested with ectoparasites.
After bathing they should be towel dried properly and care should be taken that water does not enter their eyes and ears. They should be kept at dry and warm place for proper drying.
