To socialize a shy kitten, you can start by creating a calm and safe environment for them to feel comfortable in. Spend time near the kitten without trying to pet or pick them up initially. Gradually introduce positive interactions like gentle petting, playtime with toys, and offering treats to build trust. Encourage them to explore their surroundings and provide hiding spots for when they feel overwhelmed. Consistent and patient socialization efforts will help the shy kitten become more comfortable and confident over time.
