Best way to clean a poorly bun?

Our bun peewee has been unwell for sometime now with bad head tilt.. still eats and drinks and is inquistive as normal.. he is still mobile when we put carpet down on the lamminate flooring..


Anyway... could anybody suggest a way to clean him as he smells a little of pee, ie. rolling around in hutch and not being able to toilet himself in his poo corner.. so is lying in it..

thought about puppy shampoo but dont know if mild enough.. bought wipes but they dont seem to do anything.
 
hey if you are wanting to bath him, you are best to use rabbit shampoo which you can buy from pet shop. The rabbit shampoo is made ideally for rabbits and you will just need to make sure he is completly dry before you place him back into his hutch if its outside. there is also a shampoo which you dont need water for which is also a rabbit one.

good luck :)
 
thanks for the response. our bun is inside since he has been unwell. We have never seen rabbit shampoo any idea where we can buy it from?

wont he freak if we bathed him, never washed a rabbit before?do yo put him in the water or just use a damp cloth?
