bathing?

Is it ok to give a mouse a bath the same as you would a guinea big? If so, could you use rabbit shampoo?

i don't think so. but i'm not sure. What I do to my mice is kind of give them a sponge bath. I think even if it is ok to give them a bath, they probably would not like it, to say the least!

You shouldn't use protects that are for any other animals. If you want to give your mouse a bath, what was already stated is a good idea: a spongebath. Don't use soap or any type of shampoo, the mice may be allergic or it may have a negative effect on their skin. Just use warm water on a washcloth or a sponge
