QuestionI am afraid that my rabbit will get it into his mouth and nose. What do I do to avoid this?LeahlovesGodTop AnswererIf you are worried that your rabbit will consume it or breathe it in, spray the shampoo onto a wet cloth and then apply it to your rabbit. The product is specially designed and deemed safe for your rabbit, so it's okay if he grooms himself while it's still on.

QuestionIf I shampoo my rabbit, then she licks her fur, will shampoo can get in her mouth? What if I'm unable to bathe her?Community AnswerIt is fine if some shampoo gets in the rabbit's mouth. The product wouldn't be sold if it was harmful. In general, rabbits are clean animals and they mostly groom themselves/each other. If you can't bathe her, wet wipes work well.

QuestionHow do I keep my rabbit from biting me?Community AnswerYou can't really stop a rabbit from biting you. It bites you because it thinks your hand is food, so keep letting it get used to you and then it should stop biting.
