Giving My Guinea Pigs A Bath: Another Struggle | GuineaDad

  • It's bath time for my three girls! Just like with nail trimming, giving my guinea pigs baths stresses me out. I can't help but be nervous! As guinea parents, we have to make sure their cage is sanitary and observe regular grooming so that the piggies will stay clean for a longer time. After all, bath time should be kept to a minimum. Guinea pigs should only be bathed when needed. Do you have any tips to make bath time easier? Let us know in the comments~
    This is the edited version of one of my past live streams. I do lives every Monday at 12pm PST, so please come and join if you can~ You can watch the full guinea pig bath live stream here: • GuineaDad Live - Guine...

    I bathe my guinea pigs once a month. I don't use a blow dryer. I just dry them with a towel. Then I put then on the floor and I let them shake it off. Their always so fluffy cute afterwards eventhough they have short fur

I'm heading over to your shop for pea flakes, and btw, your liners are THE best, just the most hygienic and at the same time softest liners, nice to wash on cold water, which is GREAT, an a low dryer, another plus, and then I air dry and I'm done, I get clean and wonderfully soft liners, with that pocket, what more can a piggy or piggy owner want? Thank you so much, and also for all your videos, I'm a lifelong customer for sure!

    I never had problems bathing/showering only one piggy. They still recognize each other. They just become curious at the different smell and do extra grooming to get the washed piggy back to the group smell.
    At leats that's what it looks like.

    Could you use dog shampoo? I have dogs, (that I will keep separate from the guinea pigs) and if I don’t have to buy another type of shampoo, that would be nice. If I don’t have to bathe them very often I don’t wanna have to buy a new shampoo for them.

      They (usually) pee in a place where they feel safe, which is often times a dark place or a corner. Maybe create a space that's more appealing for them to hide and do their business instead of in their nuggets!

      @GuineaDad  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It's generally not recommended to shampoo guinea pigs with human baby shampoo or any other human grooming products. Guinea pigs have delicate skin that is sensitive to many chemicals and ingredients found in human products, including shampoos. Using the wrong shampoo could cause skin irritation, dryness, or other health issues for your guinea pig.
