To socialize a shy pet rat, you will need to start by creating a calm and comfortable environment for them. Spend time near their cage, talking to them softly and offering treats to build trust. Once they become more comfortable with your presence, try gently handling them for short periods each day to help them get used to being touched. Additionally, providing them with toys and activities can help increase their confidence and encourage social interaction. Be patient and consistent in your approach to help your shy pet rat become more comfortable and sociable over time.
