Baths are a hugely important part of keeping your guinea pig clean but above all healthy.
Do guinea pigs need baths? Why yes they do! At the very least 2 times a year.
So guinea pigs are not “self cleaning”? No!
Does a bath make a guinea pigs skin dry? No it doesn't, in fact regular bathing prevents dry skin flakes.
Does giving your guinea pig a bath give them an ear infection? No not at all.
Does bathing your guinea pig give them an upper respiratory infection?
No it doesn't but make sure you do not leave your guinea pig damp, blow dry really good till the coat is dry.
Does bathing my guinea pig lower her immune system? The exact opposite applies actually. You want to keep your guinea pig clean in order for her to stay healthy.
Is it true that you never should wash your guinea pigs face? Not true, you for sure want to wash her face.

You are really doing a very nice work and the way you are caring them , I mean , for them you don't reduce the quantity what they need , it dosen't matter whether you are grooming him or her into bathing or make them sleep or feed them , I think , you are doing this work in a much better way , and I think , for cats also you will do the same , and I don't have any problem if u don't like cats . But , I don't hate this animal , actually I didn't wanted to know more about this animal , because I thought that there are only some people who know about these , and don't care too much like cats and dogs , but you r doing great .
I'm not even into guinea pigs and this information is totally useless to me but for some reason i am very fond of this channel... !😁
Good infirmation is never useless!! You never know when you may need it
Give pig bath two times?Yes I could be addicted to this attention.Pig is clean & feels better,ultimately. 😉
Omg same I have a bunny and want a little piggy but ik I can't house them together I just love watching her channel i want one now but I need to learn more and watching her channel
austin sadie suggested channel: little adventures. It’s probably the biggest guinea pig channel in CZcams, and it’s amazing!
If you DON'T like it DON'T watch it...DUH
I washed my guinea pigs and one of them spent the whole bath getting comfy in the sink purring and just enjoying the rub
Purring is bad
zara b honestly I just got my guinea pigs and I’ve been trying to do research but everything confuses me but thanks for info
@@mirry2371 o you will know the difference when they purr it's very distinct I have 4 boys so I can always hear the difference
A retarded Once No it’s not my guinea pigs love getting pet and they purr so
@@lisapine634 Purring is good unless it's followed by teeth chitters.
15:24 "guinea pigs are very dramatic" truer words have not been spoken!! 😆
Sooo true!! Drama queens extroidanaire🤣💜
No Doubt! Nor are they nearly as fragile as they will come to have you believe with the dramatic piggie squeals they unleash from time to time when they don't like what's going on! First time I bathed my boy he screamed @ me I thought I had done him in! Ha! ; 0 Now he loves baths ; )
Yessssssss one of my five is constantly breaking nails when he gets a bath, be cause he’s a bucking bronco. Kinda scary in some cases just because he could hurt himself, but so far he’s been ok and I’m training him. Still, so true!
@@shapegirl1 I find that mine will put up with a certain amount of messing around with them but as soon as they hit that point, that's it, they're done, I've had enough you and I want to go back in my cage
Me opening a bag of chips
My guinea pigs in there room hearing the crinkle of the bag *SQUEAK*
When I got my second piggie he had very bad “dandruff” after I gave him his first bath (and on a good diet) his fur completely changed!!
Fho
Yea when I got my 30th piggy he was like that
We had a "dusty" pig who had flaky skin his entire life
@@londontucker2345 wasting money fr
I always enjoy how she speaks to the lil piggies, I find it soothing to find someone else who treats animals the way I do (speaking directly to them, caring for them, etc) its really sweet, you can really tell she truly cares for the lil Guinea pigs . :)
Is done with the video*
Looks at pig*
Pig: hehehe... bye hooman I'm going to hide
We needed this video years ago! Thank you Saskia people were starting to confuse rabbits with guinea pigs. The information is just pure gold and should be shared to as many people as possible. You're an amazing person! 💖💕
Interesting observation. Yes I too noticed that at times certain things that apply to bunnies are indeed mixed up.
No ... all she is saying is just bullshit...
고양이 glad i found the vid i thought baths were a once a year kinda thing bc of other youtubers
I'm confused. My pet doctors said never bath them if not necessary because guinea Pigs are prone to get bladder infections if you do anything wrong here. Also it stresses them, because it's not a natural behaviour for them to bathe in water - wild guinea pigs don't bathe either. They have this eye liquid they use tho clean themselves
Usually when I see other guinea pig channels recommend bathing they have really dirty, mostly rescue guinea pigs that haven't been taken care of well before, so they are used to bathe them because in that case it's necessary if the guinea pig can't help themselves anymore. But I was told if you keep their cage clean and your guinea pig is able to self-clean properly it's absolutely not necessary.
In the wild, they are always on fresh grass and soil, though and seldom on soiled bedding. And they are vulnerable to the Esther elements. What happens in the wild when they are exposed to rain? Do they get respiratory and bladder infections because they are exposed to water? I don’t think so. I don’t think a bath every few months will do them any harm, so long as they are rinsed throughly and not left damp. And I don’t think water, even with a small animal shampoo dissolved in it, ever caused bladder infections or UTIs. I would really have reservations about my vet if that were the advice they were giving me. That sounds very suspect.
I tried to bath my guinea pig once... I almost lost my fingers
Lmfao 😂
how-
My guinea pig loves getting a bath😂
🤧😅
Thanks for the laugh 😂!
"Guinea pigs don't bite as a rule" HAHA tell that to one of my boys, who always charges at me if I get too close and he's not in the mood 😆
Seriously, my guinea pig is a biter lol
I got a nice nip on my finger when I let our new piggie test out my finger a little too long. Since she was a year old and had been at the shelter for over a month, I figured her teeth might be a bit long and sharp.
Spencer is just way too cute!! One other benefit to giving your guinea pig a bath is that the gentle massaging of the skin as you work the shampoo in helps prevent sebaceous cysts from forming.
I have no idea why I loved watching her clean it’s ears so much
I totally agree with Saskia!! I bathe my piggies every few months, sometimes a bum bath more often then that! I mostly use gorgeous guineas shampoo, they have different kinds, but I'm going to keep a bottle of antifungal shampoo in my first aid kit in case. I'm also using the olive oil for ear and boar cleaning too, thanks Saskia and Ursula!
You are so welcome Susan!
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue so many piggie tubers say not to bath them but i trust you saskia
You should wait a little longer other than that yoyr good and what shampo do you use
@@toriparrott9497 little adventures (which is another guinea pig you tuber) says to bathe them 3-4 times a year. That’s the same thing she said so idk any other you tubers who disagree
@@toriparrott9497 but it’s great that you still bathe them even though CZcamsrs tell you not to
I just love your channel. Had guinea pigs as a teen. I’m a volunteer at my local shelter and occasionally we will get one or two in. Unfortunately, no one seems to know how to care for them, so I’m hoping I’m able to share what I’m learning from you when we get our next baby in.
I’m getting a Guinea pig today for Christmas yay I am naming it potato
There is a lot of misinformation, sometimes from people who should know better (veterinary specialists.) Do lots of reading, watch a wide variety of channels who cover Guinea pig care, but take it with a grain of salt, because there will probably be some misinformation sprinkled in, here and there. You will develop a knack for deciding what is and isn’t true. This channel is particularly good for breaking the myths and promoting good care info for this species.
it is very, very true that you will get wet yourself while bathing a guinea pig. I've lost count of the number of times Badger and Taco shook water off themselves and all over me.
Zander Falcon awwwwww cute names! Ours are named bob, darth Vader, leia, Kyle ren, Rey, bb8, Grace, lucky, bugsy, comet, brownie. Of course, they aren’t all alive anymore, or we sold some of them, and we currently have five but leia is prego, so we’ll have around three new little baby piggies! We’re thinking of naming them pua, pumba, and squirt.
Bath a piggy, get a free shower 😂
Taco?? ❤❤❤🐹
Wear a nice plastic apron and old clothes don't care about about same as washing my dog in the tub. Scratches haven't seen me wash my cats. I do that maybe twice a year depending on how dirty they get. I don't like wash them too often unless they are dirty. Usually in warmer months. Never winter or spring if too cold.
Thank you! ❤️ We get comments every day on our bathing videos from people who think it is dangerous to bathe guinea pigs.
Right, It appears to be a widely held belief sadly
As a person with allergies I also find bathing my guinea pigs 4x a year really helps keep my skin reaction down (slight hives). I also do the same with my cat to keep both mats and my allergies at bay. Everyone says both species don't need baths as it is bad for them. But I totally agree with Saskia that it is something that is needed a few times a year 😊 I have relatives that come visit my home with severe animal allergies and they go home with no symptoms.
Good to know that regular bathing helps with allergies!
I have always given my cat a bath 2x a month. I then part the hair & oil the skin with baby oil. I oil 1x a wk. Never used flea meds due to the oil preventing fleas.
Yes it does I wash my pets also. Pet dander gets me so bad but I love my fur babies (dog, cats and guinea pigs) good thing I am not allergic to my fresh and saltwater fish or my son's African clawed frogs 😆
That’s really interesting actually, whenever I hold my boys my skin gets a little red so I’ll keep this in mind!
I’m a pet groomer with a specialization in small animals and I agree. A bath with a small-animal shampoo will not do them any harm. There is a lot of misinformation in this business and I have even had veterinary professionals give me totally wrong information.
That technique you use where you rest their body on your forearm made bathing my pigs a breeze. I wish I would've figured that out sooner. They didn't wiggle around as much because they felt so much safer. Keep up the great work ❤
I just took in an adult teddy boy his ears were completely plugged and crusted over with black dry wax, the oil trick worked so well! Giving him bath today!
You look like a living Barbie doll.
Near Beast that’s sweet.
And so true, she really does with the golden hair and pink lipstick, she looks like a Barbie!
I think maybe you should focus on the fact she is giving us very helpful info :)
I’m not sending hate. Yes she looks beautiful but she is very smart and have helped at least me a lot. So i think you should focus on her beautiful personality instead. She is not payed but is still doing this :)
Animated Glasses um this is just a compliment they sent to her. There just trying to make her feel good...
Gave all four of my girls a bath last night my abbysinian peaches was chilling!!! Straight just relaxing!!! My American Wednesday scratched me so bad and jumped out the sing a couple times lmao
Each guinea pig is different adapt to each! Lol
I know this was 7 months ago but mine are the total opposite, my Abbsyinian is my little spitfire. She is very wild and doesn't let to be held or pet much where my American loves attention, she loves pets and doesn't mind being picked up. I heard Abbsyinian's typically love the attention but not in my case. Must have to do with the name Peaches because my American is named Peaches and she's the sweet one🤣
Thank you for this video! I wash finally able to wash my elderly pig today. She got really scared lately when i tried to groom and wash her, so I got scared to do it (I’ve washed piggies for years but she would go mental lately, maybe because of piggy dementia???) but your video helped so much! I got my confidence back that I could do this and took control of the situation so she would not notice my fear. My mom also helped me (I have spasms and can’t do it alone because my hands are not strong enough) and I was able to tell her what to do because you explain it so clearly in the video. Now I have a fresh clean piggy. A happy elderly piggy and a happy piggy mom haha
Oh how wonderful, thank you for sharing Lauri!
Not giving my Peruvians a bath is out of the question. They free roam, and their hair is very thick and silky.
Hi Saskia you are an absolute angel to help so many of these cute little critters. I live in Asia but I'm going to donate to your Rescue Centre, please keep up the good work!
Aww thank you Simon! The little ones say THANK YOU wheek!!
Thank you so much for this video! I gave my three female guinea pigs their first bath today. I was nervous about it, but it went great!! This was a huge help!
Saskia, you have taught me so much!! I have three girl piggies and I love them. Watching you and the volunteers is so inspiring and I would love to start my own guinea pig sanctuary after I've learned everything that I possibly can which I know will take a few years... Thanks so much 😊!!
What a good boy he was. Great tips will definitely have to wash my baby girls and they’re stinky buns lol
So interesting! The boy clean part was especially interesting, because I didn’t know you needed to clean them there, as well as the ear part, at least with the olive oil. That’s so helpful, thank you so much Saskia!
Thank you! I bathe my piggies as needed. I have 2 texels and 1 silkie, they need to be bathed and groomed pretty regularly. I use gorgeous guinea shampoos and love their products!!
He is loving that bath..
19:10 me working at a hotdog stand like
😂😂😂😂 omg I had to rewind the video when I read your message... I laughed so hard 🤣🤣😂 too funny
Poo Poo Pies hotdog stand by the ocean. Rubbin doggies down.
I have never had a ginnie pig, had friends with them, or really have interest in them. I found this channel and its totally changed me in the last couple months! I can't wait for the day I can add one to my family ❤
I’m so impressed with how easy he is to handle. I never owned a piggi but watching your videos is really interesting and satisfying
She’s incredible!
I'm so glad to have caught you giving a guinea pig a bath. So many things you have clarified for me. Thank you!
You are so very welcome~!
Some guinea pigs like it. I had an old piggy who didn't want to leave the warm bath so I let her stay there for a while :)
No the guinea pig are be soo scared!
@@morceajaferda4906 not nessesarily!! Their are a few rare exception where the guinea pig enjoys it- one of my boys HATES bath time and endures it for extra cuddles, but the other one doesn't mind at all. Whenever he sees me getting the soap he chews on the bars (which he usually does when he wants something- food, attention, or in this case to get in the water first so he can shake all over his brother and get treats first). Hes calm in the water and even lies in his water bowl sometimes if it's warm outside :)
Dramatic is an understatement. First time I tried to bathe my new piggie she actually played possum . She just layed there motionless I thought she was dead at first but about 5 minutes later she jumped up and ran to her house sneaky little creatures.
I have three of then they are extremely happy and have plenty of food and space
Awww that guinea pig is so pretty
So helpful! Thank you. I just groomed my first 2 long haired guinea pigs after watching 2 of your videos and 1 additional other CZcams video source. I ordered the same clippers u used and the groom went very well. Lots of matts on one piggy but we worked thru it and they turned out great. I did use scissors as well but mostly just the clippers. Gave them (both girls) a nice Brazilian and tummy shave. I have to go back next week for the baths. Which is why I watched this video. You have helped me so much & I greatly appreciate it!! Normally I cut nails on almost any animal and we groom birds (beaks, nails & wings). Having this info has made it so we can offer another nice service to our customers. I really can’t thank you enough!!! 💝
This is needed for so many people! I will share this. 💞
I feel super clean after watching that. 😂
TOP JOB 🤩👍✔️
Years ago, we had a gorgeous longhaired g.p. named Mr Chuckles. He needed baths regularly, and just loved them. Floating in warm water was his favorite thing to do. He just purred and purred...
I had no idea you have to clean the ears!!!! Thank you so much 🙏
Saskia resembles a young Faye Dunaway so much,She's beautiful!.
That’s it! I knew she resembled someone else, but I couldn’t put my finger on it.
I agree! I also thought of Sharon Stone
o found this online and it said you can make a homemade shampoo for guinea pigs Guinea Pig Shampoo Alternatives DIY
½ cup of distilled water.
¼ cup of liquid dish detergent.
¼ cup of apple cider vinegar.
Sure, great ingredients but I would prefer the commercial one because they will smell much better.
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue could you maybe just add a safe drop of essential oil ?
Thanks again for sharing this video on bathing your guinea pig very helpful information.
I wonder of people are lumping guinea pigs and bunnies. Bunnies aren't suppose to be bathe so I wonder if that's where the misconception comes from?
I don't have a guinea pig but this channel is the most helpful if you're a first time Guinea pig parent.
Yes that sadly happens ALL the time
lol, her hair matches the guinea pig! idk, it made me laugh😂
Spencer already knows what's fixing to happen
Such a great person, saving Guinea pigs and providing us with great info and tips for our own guinea pigs :)
Thank you so much!😘
He looks so purdy!!
I used your methods to bathe my guinea pigs and it worked! I have 7 girls and all of them behaved so good for me when holding them like that! I was honestly shocked! They even ate for me while holding them to dry them off, which my girls would never eat while being held before. I watch all of your videos and just wanted to say thank you for giving so much good information :)
He's so cute and very well behaved!! Though he didn't look too thrilled with the bath lol. Guinea pigs can be very dramatic, I have one who yells every time you pick her up.
This video is very helpful to New Guinea pig owner, like myself or long time guinea pig owners. Thank you 💗
So cute and informative! Spencer looked great afterwards and he was also a well behaved boy for being the "guinea pig" for this video. Just subscribed. Look forward to watching future videos! ❤️🤗
Thank you Saskia for this video :o) One thing with the piggies: they may be looking quiet, but as soon as they find the opportunity, they'll try to run away, so make sure to hold them tight and in a place where they cannot fall from high. And yes Saskia, I've found out the same way as you of holding one of their little front paws. Mine are lunkaryas and I love these little Ones with all my heart!
What a good and cute boy!!
I like how confident you are bathing him.
That blonde guinea looks like a duckling 😭💕💕💕
Why do people have so many problems with their guineapigs? Do they not put them outside in a nice little shady patch with a little water bowl to bath themselves? All three of my guinea pigs lived to approximately 8 years old. They always had shiny hair no clots or stinky ears or whatever. The only thing i had to do was taking care of their nails. (clipping once in a while in winter because they were inside and could not smirgle them off) I hope people one day will only buy pets when they are able to care properly for them and i am happy that you rescue people are helping these poor creatures so much.
used to bath our piggies in the bathroom sink. they weren't cool about the bath but seemed to like the warm water !
I loved hearing my gunnie pigs squeek 🥰. I miss my babies.
When I wash my Piggies it's so nice to be able to really feel their bodies for Lumps and Bumps even better than I usually can.
Love your channel Saskia, you are so beautiful inside and outside 💞💞😌😌
He's being really good and not making a lot of noise.
This channel is a god send, my dad bought me a guinea pig and i have no idea what to do, this is so helpful
I wouldn't mind watching more cleaning & bath videos with different piggies!
Me too!!
Yes, a Spa Day video 💖💖
Great video! I only give mine a bath if they need it... lol if someone's stinky or gets er "something" on their fur.
By the way, you should get some more miconazole cream in the mail tomorrow! I wish I could have sent you a midwest but that was not in my budget right now.
Hope you all are staying safe! And hope you have a good stock of gloves and hand santizer!
Yes we received it yesterday! We were all out showed ti to Stef and Ursula and we all were very happy with that particular delivery! It got put to use right away as well as we literally just finished the last tube. Thank you!! ❤❤
So cool!
Me too
spencer is really cute and fluffy
Thank you Saskia! My piggies have gotten pretty stinky and dirty through our rainy season and I was wondering if I should wash them or not. Now I have something to do with them this evening! Here’s hoping I don’t get bitten ☺️
Awww!! I just put mine in a shallow tub with warm water, lather them, let them swim around a bit and then rinse.
they can't swim
Thank you, miss Saskia, I'll be sure to keep this in mind for my piggies!
I had 6 Guinea pigs . They had very long hair ( 8 inches ) . I always bathed them and then put thier hair up in rollers. I would brush them out. They were beautiful. Every night I would put their hair up in rollers. They loved being fussed over. Love the piggies.
Wild guinea pigs get rained on all the time and they adjust. It's silly to think Cavies cannot get wet.
Rain doesn't have soap, and wild guinea pigs and domestic guinea pigs are incredibly different, they evolved from the Montane guinea pig, which are veryyyyyyyy different. They can get wet but doing it to often is harmful. It stresses them and is really just unnecessary, normal guinea pigs only need full baths when a vet says so, never any other time. Butt baths of course are fine as well as cleaning male parts but not full baths like the video.
@@jaimevosganian3479 its perfectly fine to bath piggies.
@@syoncav It's not :D
@@mochiimilkk8342 and why not?????
@@syoncav Uhh... They are self cleaning. You shouldnt bathe your guniea pigs
Guinea pigs are known to be an extremely clean creatures who groom themselves very often. Therefore, you rarely need to give them a bath. Please do not bathe your guinea pig unless it is necessary. Unnecessary baths will result in dry fur coats and skin. They can also get really anxious during the process, resulting in biting and nipping. I haven't bathed my guinea pig and she's fine dispute having long fur, of course she gets butt matts but all you have to do is trim them or brush them out. Please do not bathe your guinea pig unless instructed by a professional. I bet this guinea pigs trust with it's owner is horrible, and there can be other risks too. Guinea pigs are great at keeping themselves clean, but you might have to bathe yours if it has an infection or abscess. Only bathe your guinea pig if you absolutely need to so you don’t cause it any unneeded stress
Edit: Her reasoning in the first clip is hilarious, "Do you bathe your dog? I bet you do"
A dog and a guinea pig are two completely different things with different levels of processing. You can't compare a guinea pig to a dog and expect everyone to immediately believe you. They don't "Have" to have baths. I know this woman may think she's an expert but I don't believe so, I may be wrong, but I don't believe this and I will go on to not bathing my guinea pig to save her not only her health, but her and my sanity. PLEASE ONLY BATHE IF NEEDED!
Such a good (& pretty) boy
What a handsome little guy!
My kid really wants guinea pigs so I'm doing all the research beforehand and this channel is invaluable. Thank you so much for sharing all the information any piggie person could ever need to keep them safe and well.
Thank you! My uncle didnt do any research with his guinea pigs and they are not in good shape. I really appreciate you for doing this!
Oh gosh he is so adorable. That little belly..soooo cute.
I love watching all your videos and I have learned so much from you. Thank you for taking the time to make them and to educate people on the care of these beautiful animals.
I am much more confident when caring for my 3 piggies thanks to you all that is why I felt I needed to donate to help you continue. I posted links to your videos and website for my friends too.
I thank you and so do my piggies!
Thank you!!!!
You certainly have a knack for piggies and this helps me soooo much as a new piggy mom 💕 thank you for these videos!
Thank you so much for this video. I have two guinwa pigs I got surrendered by my friend who just couldn't take care of them and since I don't know anything about piggies I've just been bathing them every two weeks after cleaning their cages. The conditioning part is helpful and kmowing that they need antifungal shampoo is an eye opener!
What?! My piggies LOVE bathes! They never want to get out!
You’re glowing! Thanks for your advice :)
Are used to never give my piggies baths until I heard this it was a bit shocking at first but it makes quite a lot of sense!
I’m glad I watched this. I got my piggies some small animal shampoo and when I got them but then my vet told me to never ever bathe them. I thought that was crazy... this is good to know.
They are such adorable animals
I’m so glad I found this all the other channels are DONT GET ANY WATER IN THE EYES EARS AND NOISE
Water is the eyes is not detrimental and I find it icky not to wash the face. We have been doing our baths like this for over 20 years. So go ahead and bathe away!
@@LosAngelesGuineaPigRescue
Bei meinen blieb beim Abspülen nur die Nase frei, und sie liebten es, entspannten sich völlig.
This is a perfect video, thank you sooo much. It was also very close up so I could actually see in detail how to clean all areas.
that was awesome informative video! thanks a lot!
i had my guineas clean once a year, this information was very helpful for when in finatualy able to have guineas again in the future
Spencer , such a good boy xxxx ty for sharing xxx
What a good boy! Rupert does not obey.
I used baby shampoo on mine, or Johnson's baby path, are they ok?
Yes
Thanks I was wondering the same thing!
Just don’t use dove or they will lose all there hair
Same
If I had been Spencer, I would have been fighting, too. Enough already!
Er ist so kräftig wie Bud Spencer ( Filmschauspieler ), mein Alvin sah genau so aus, und liebte das Abspülen über der Wanne mit warmen Wasser.
Came here to cleanse my palette because I was watching a “guinea pig influencer” who was yelling about how you should bathe them every THREE YEARS or NEVER🤢🤢
She was definitely one of those people that was like “NEVER DO ANYTHING THAT COULD MAKE YOUR PIG UPSET” which is true to an extent.... part of the responsibility of owning an animal and taking proper care of them. In order to properly care for them sometimes you have to do things they don’t like. My cats hate going to the vet and get upset and stressed. Does that mean I shouldn’t take them? No!
He seemed to enjoy his bath and the rinsing. He looks so pretty after being dried.
nice to see theres people who care about this little friends!
one of mu guinea pigs love baths his name is mapel and his a rescue
Wow I learned a lot here, I’ll wash my piggies face next bath time since I never knew you could! And I always thought I was being too rough, but it looks like that’s just how it goes lol.
"It's a little stinky." Lol yes it is! Thanks to the first video I watched from this channel, I knew not to breathe through my nose to clean my first boy's pocket, but I had forgotten it when I did my other boy's pocket. My lunch had nearly made a reappearance 🤢
😛
