Spray it with a mix of 50/50 glycerin and water. Let it dry overnight, then repeat.
It may take a few days, but when you are done it should be plump and soft.
Then airbrush it to the color you want.

Mix powdered tempra paint with water and spray from a bottle, Also if you can remove the habitat just airbrush it to a more vibrant color.
