Should I Bath My Piggies ?

[artcasper]

Hi guys, just wondering when I should bath my piggies.. Tonight we let them have a run on the kitchen floor but they sat in their wee.. i dried them off but wondered whether to bath them? Would they be ok in the bath with just a bit of water or best to put them into a container of some sort? they wouldn't be left alone..

We only ever bath for medical reasons such as fungal etc.... as bathing stresses piggies out (ours definitely). We do bum baffs occasionally in a bowl for our long haired girl. Gorgeous guineas do shampoo safe for piggies http://shop.gorgeousguineas.com/shampoos-1-c.asp

You could use baby wipes, they are safe for piggies.

Thank you ... I won't go for a bath then.. I did dry them off so hopefully it won't affect them.. I have baby wipes in the house even though my kids are no longer babies ! X

Just give them a quick bum bath with hand warm water, so the pee can dry in.
