Urine stained bunny feet and bum solutions

[ravishing]

Hello everyone

My broken blue tort lop has a urine stained bum and feet. Does anyone know how to safely clean it? I've allowed about a weeks time for her to clean it off herself but it is fading to slowly. Please let me know of any solutions I have heard of the following

- wiping with baby wipes
- wiping with warm water and cotton balls
- scrubbing with warm water and soft tooth brush
- Using a itty bitty drop of baby shampoo with the above two suggestions.

Let me know if any of these google suggestions are bun safe and any other ideas you may have

thank you so very much!

Baby wipes can work, although not usually.

I don't recommend using anything that gets the bun wet, really, unless you have fecal matter that you need to get off. I have used baby shampoo, but just getting wet seems to really stress out the rabbit.

I usually grab some cornstarch (or cornstarch-based baby powder if you want a scent) and give the bunny a deep massage. Try to get each hair pretty well coated. After that, take a slicker brush and just brush, brush, brush to get most of the powder out.
