Rabbits shouldn't be bathed unless absolutely necessary. Bathing can be stressful and dangerous for rabbits. Healthy rabbits keep themselves clean, so if your rabbit needs a bath, something is wrong and you probably need to bring the rabbit to a vet. If you do need to give your bunny a bath, take precautions to make sure you keep the rabbit safe. Use luke warm water and a baby bath or sink. If you use shampoo, make sure it's safe. Most shampoos made for babies, cats, dogs, etc. are not safe for rabbits. Even some made for rabbits aren't safe! Look for a hypoallergenic, non-medicated shampoo (even herbs with "natural" healing properties should be avoided); the more organic and natural, with few ingredients and additives, the better.
