you can use pretty much anything to clean your pig, you should bathe your pig at least once a month, dont use scented shampoo and no conditioner which will make the fur oily. Ask your vet for a brand that is good for your piggie.
It is fine to never bath your guinea pig. They dont need a bath because they clean themselves.
The most common one is Cavy. There might be others but it is mostly Guinea Pig and Cavy, but they DO NOT come from New Guinea nor are they part pig. Take Care and god Bless! :)
They are not members of the pig family
The name Guinea Pig came from the sailors. sailors thought their squeals sounded like a pigs. and they sold guinea pigs for one guinea. thus guinea pig.
It is spelled "guinea pig". You got it right! :)
Any guinea pig shampoo should be fine for your guinea pig but you might want to ask your vet, an employee at a pet store, or friends with guinea pigs.
I try to clean my guinea pig's cage around once a week or when it looks dirty.

You should NEVER bathe a guinea pig. They have oil on their skin that helps them be clean, and germ free. If you bathe them, it will wash all of that oil off. At pet stores, you can get a spray bottle that as good smelling liquid in it. It is wonderful for guinea pigs, but is for ferrits.
pick it up
you clean it
once a week
