Bathing a Guinea Pig

This video has been reeallyy requested (: I made this a few days ago. Here's some Q&A on bathing a guinea pig:

Q: What type shampoo should you use?
A: Baby shampoo and pet shampoo for sensitive skin. I use V.E.T. Solutions and BioGroom Oatmeal Rinse.

Q: What age should you start bathing your guinea pig?
A: Wait until your guinea pig is at least 3-4 months before bathing.

Q: When should you bathe your guinea pig?
A: Only bathe short hair guinea pigs every 3 months or as needed. Long hair piggies can be bathed more often because their fur gets dirtier more easily.

@MrKingsterz no at least 3 1ce a week

[SmallPetChannel]

@kassidyrose777 If you bathe your guinea pig every week, their skin will be stripped of natural oils. Please don't give out false information on my videos.

Wait so what is the towel in the sink for?

[SmallPetChannel]

@coky324 It keeps their feet comfortable.

Is it ok to use the shampoo from pet stores ? I think its called Critter shampoo's made by super pet.

@GunieaPigXoXo It could hurt their eyes especially if you get soap in them.. Also you could get water in their ears.
