I was very silly malletheadmalletheadand bathed my Guinea pig I put Shower Gel on him and then washed it of then put shampoo (Herbal Essences human shampoo) then washed of and the same with condishoiner. I put are power shower very low and washed him of every time i shampooed him. I now it was very silly malletheadmalletheadbut what if hes came out in a rash i am really conserned, please help?/:0:...
 
Although you shouldn't really use human shampoo on animals I doubt you have done any harm to him. Better using something more gentle if you bath him again.:)
 
Thanks!

Thanks i am reassured now thatnk u ever sooo much i am glad he is now a happy (and he smells nice) Guinea Pig. I will take much more care next time.:p
 
If he does start scratching maybe just bath him again using just water just to make sure all the shampoo was rinsed out.:)
 
Thanks Again!

Thaks again for all your help and i will by some shampoo for my Guinea Pig Scruff Thank You :p : ) x
 
LMAO at using conditioner hes so pampered hehehe! Bless you ..we all make mistakes, when i wash my guinnea i just do it with water seems to do the trick although I'm sure it wont smell as nice as your guinnea does! x
 
lol but i shall make sure i do it proropperly next time but it was the first time i done it and first time he has had a wash in his life. But thanks :p
 
Be careful with Herbal Essences - don't use it on Scruff again, I got some in my eyes once, never known pain like it and won't buy it again! You're best off with products specially for g.pigs as they do have sensitive skin - like the Gorgeous Guineas stuff.

I bet Scruff smells gorgeous though!
