This mild and gentle soap free formulation cleans and conditions in one easy application. Leaves your pets coat clean and smelling fresh. Most small animals including Rabbits and Guinea Pigs wash themselves very well. It can be harmful to bathe them, and should only be done in exceptional circumstances (i.e. they have come in to contact with something that could be harmful). Wash only the required area (aka spot cleaning), do not immerse the entire animal in the water. Rinse shampoo thoroughly.
