Can I use human soap for my hedgehog?

Using Human Soap for Hedgehogs

It is not recommended to use human soap for your hedgehog. Hedgehogs have sensitive skin, and human soaps often contain fragrances, dyes, and other chemicals that can irritate their skin or cause allergic reactions. Instead, you should use a mild, unscented soap specifically formulated for small animals or a gentle baby shampoo. Always ensure that any product you use is free from harmful chemicals and is safe for pets. When bathing your hedgehog, make sure to rinse thoroughly to remove any soap residue, as this can also irritate their skin. Additionally, limit baths to only when necessary, as frequent bathing can strip their skin of natural oils and lead to dryness. It's best to consult with a veterinarian if you're unsure about the right products for your hedgehog's hygiene needs.
