Can you bathe your ferret with joy dish soap?

Answer 1

Noooo, I would not suggest bathing an animal with Dawn dish soap. Dawn is a very through de-greaser, and as such, would removed the protective oils from the ferret's underfur and skin. That would cause the ferret harm. Also, it could cause damage to the ferret's eyes if it got in them.

Either buy a pet shampoo from the grocery store or pet store, or use baby shampoo. Mix the shampoo with some water to make it flow over the ferret's coat more easily.

Answer 2

No. Ferrets should only be washed with special ferret shampoo unless you vet recommends something else. Make sure not to wash your ferret too often (every 4-5 months at most) or their skin will begin to produce more oil. The oil in the ferrets skin contains their scent, so washing the ferret too frequently will actually result in your ferrets odor increasing.

Answer 3

No you need to use Dawn.
