It's a mild veterinary disinfectant. It's used by several zoos for the same purpose I do, but it's more commonly used in higher concentration as a "safe" disinfectant for most animals. Some facilities use it in mild concentration in bins/buckets to soak their snakes while cleaning cages. Its said to not only be safe to drink at the concentrations they use, but reusable between multiple animals unless soiled. I've used it like that for a good while now with no ill effects. I'm not going to post the concentration I use just because I dont want to be liable for anyone's mistakes if they don't do things right (I'd recommend betadine for most people). I get my chlorhexidine by the gallon and it lasts me quite a while, but that also means I have to pay closer attention to concentrations when prepping a "bath".
In Slinky's case, she got a fresh bath and it was not reused for anything else as that would violate her quarantine.
