How often should I give Pippin a bath? I try to bathe her at least once a day but I wonder if that is too much. I never add soap or anything and let her cling to my feet (it hurts my back to bend over to give her acess to my hands). She seems like like her baths now that she has gotten older and even closes her eyes and sometimes lets herself float. I watch her like a hawk in there and my mother says that I am more responsible than some parents to human children who leave their babies unattended in the tub. I like to consider Pippin my little sister as opposed to my daughter. All my pets are like younger siblings. But anyway, how often should I give her a bath.
