Can I use regular soap to bathe my hedgehog?

Using Soap to Bathe Hedgehogs

It is not recommended to use regular soap to bathe your hedgehog. Hedgehogs have sensitive skin that can easily dry out or become irritated with harsh chemicals found in regular soaps. Instead, you should use a specially formulated hedgehog shampoo or an oatmeal-based shampoo that is gentle on their skin. Make sure to rinse thoroughly to remove all traces of shampoo to prevent skin issues. Additionally, bathing your hedgehog too frequently can strip their skin of natural oils, so it's best to only bathe them when necessary, such as when they get dirty or if recommended by a veterinarian.
