If your rat needs to be bathed, baby shampoo would be fine.
baby shampoo
Yes you can but be careful with the type you use.
Bathe the rat with shampoo with the active ingredient pyrethrins, at no higher than 0.15%--check with your vet as to an appropriate brand. Also disinfect the cage and surrounding area with bleach at least once a week. In addition, use fresh bedding that you have previously frozen overnight.
They can have very dry skin. If you are able to bathe him/her, use a dry scalp shampoo, condition, and baby oil, or baby lotion while still wet. If you can't bathe, baby oil liberally. repeat every few days at first, then 1x a week, after. If your piggy will be outside, use sunscreen for babies. Spray works best for quick application.
Sure as slong as it doesn't get into his eyes
Actually you don't have to bathe your ferret unless he's really dirty. Advise from another contributor Use a very diluted baby shampoo it makes them smell good and it doesn't hurt if it gets in there eyes(:
You can bathe them in dog flea shampoo or dust their undersides with Sevin (the kind you use in the garden).
Cat shampoo or baby shampoo. Human adult shampoo should not be used on a cat, it can hurt their skin.
I bathe my morkie once a week (that is usually when she starts to smell). I use a vet approved shampoo with oatmeal and aloe that prevents her coat from drying out.
Adult/ Kid shampoos and disinfectants aren't safe for guineapigs. When I bathe my piggy, I either use baby shampoo or puppy/dog shampoo. Warm water is okay to use. However, it isn't good to give them frequent baths; only do it when necessary. :)
You can use baby shampoo
You should not shampoo any bunnies no matter how old they are.
