Hey, so my boy ~2yo (Pepper) lost his cage mate, i adopted another rat~1,5yo (Remy) and today was the first intro.. it was so much easier with girls, i kinda regret now that i adopter a boy.
I did put them in a bathtub, Pepper was afraid of Remy. He just froze in one spot and didn't even sniff him, didn't want to interact at all. Remy was all over him and they got into a bit of scuffle, nothing too serious just a bit of fur was flying. After that Remy was calmer, but a lot of teeth chattering. Once again Pepper was frozen in one spot. And when again Remy was trying to show dominance, Pepper tried to get away from him and run away out of the bathtub.
How do i do intros when Pepper is so scared of Remy?
