Got to give my bunny a bath

One of my bunnies, Pepper, suffers from a condition known as "sticky bottom" normally we take her to the vets for a wash up but they have said we can do this ourselves with a bit of baby shampoo. Problem is hubby is not good with strong smells, especially the ones of poo variety. It's a two man job cleaning her as you need one to hold and one to wash. Do you think if he smears vicks under his nose it'll disguise the smell?

Elaine and Glitter, I know what you mean! I'm not looking forward to it either! lol I can see it already ending up as a major pantomime. He'll drop her, we'll spend the afternoon chasing her round trying to catch her...

It don't quite work like that Paul ! lol She has to go to the vets next week as one of eyes has started weeping too (poor little thing) but I can't let her go with a big ball of poo stuck to her fur.

Well it wasn't too bad. She didn't smell so much as a lot of it had dried so I cut a fair chunk of poo off with nail scissors. He only dropped her once but it was onto the towel covered sofa so she was safe. I didn't manage to get it all off though as she had some sore bits so it'll have to be a trip to the vets anyway :0(
