As a general rule, you should NEVER give your bunny a bath, and it can cause intense stress for the bunny and can also lead to sickness (from being wet) which can be fatal. Please don't bathe your bun, you are doing more harm than good.

You can give your bunny a bath with dry shampoo. You really aren't supposed to give your rabbits a bath because of stress issues, but I once had this rabbit that all it did was get dirty. I gave it a bath and it wasn't stress out that much but a have another bunny that does get stressed alot . It really kind of depends on your rabbit. Just be cautious and if your rabbit seems stressed then take it easy on her.

You cannot clean bunnies. Bunnies have a natural oil in their coat that keeps them clean. Bunnies clean themselves just like cats so there's no need to clean them. Even putting something as simple as plain water on them can damage the coat and skin. If for some reason it gets really dirty and doesn't seem as if it's getting clean, take it to a professional because they have special stuff to do that with.

shes pretty much doing the job herself by the sounds of it! your just gonna stress them out unescesarily ( did i spell tht ryt?). the only time u should is the really bathe bunnies is if its pure matted (in which if its so bad cutting it out would be better) or if it gets too cold (usually baby oprhaned babies)
if u must, immerse only upto the legs, dont stick ur bunny ryt in. then keep hold and remove then quickly dry or it could get a cold.
or u can use wipes aswell, they work just aswell!

You are really not supposed to give rabbits baths. You cannot do much about their smell so get a car freshener and put it on your rabbits cage. Make it so that your rabbit cannot reach it or it might get sick if it chews on it.

You don't need to bath a bunny, unless there is poo caked around their bottom. It's important to remove this because it attracts flies.
If there is no poo round your bunny's bottom, don't bath her - it stresses them, and stress is bad for bunnies!

They clean themeselves like cats. Your job is to keep the rabbit hutch clean. The cleaner that is the cleaner your rabbit will be.

Ouch.....i rather suggest not. Get some gardening gloves put them on. Bunnies have very sharp claws and sometimes they nip. Good luck!

you could hose her down, as long as the weather is warm enough - just let her splash about in the water
