Hi, I'm planning to give my guinea pigs a bum bath soon, and I was wondering if there are any good shampoos that are guinea pig safe. I've looked everywhere in my country (Canada) and I can not find any reliable guinea pig shampoos
 
Only bath them if you absolutely have to ie there is a medical need to do so such as they are elderly and aren’t able to keep themselves clean anymore or because they have diagnosed ringworm and need a bath at the end of treatment for example.
Bathing is not something that needs to be done or should be done regularly in healthy piggies who are keeping themselves clean.

If you have to bathe then try to use just plain water as much as possible. If you have to add a shampoo, then a shampoo suitable for babies is usually mild enough for piggies.
