Chinchilla and other small furry animals should not be bathed in soap and water. Instead, their fur should be cleaned in a manner consistent with their natural instincts, which is to take a dust bath that absorbs the oils and dirt attached to their fur. Fine particles of pumice provide an excellent dust bath. The animal rolls around in the pumice dust, and the pumice attaches to the fur, absorbing oil and dirt. The dust then falls off the fur during normal activity.
Navajo Brand® pumice has several products for this application.
