Expert Answer

Baby rabbits do not need baths. After a pet rabbit becomes an adult, the owner can bathe it once every 2-3 months, with the exact frequency based on how dirty the rabbit is. Rabbits are very clean animals that spend much time licking their coat to self-clean, so they usually do not get dirty; if the body is clean, no bath is needed.

Frequent bathing of pet rabbits is not advised, as it only raises the chance of stress and illness.
