Giving Sub-Q is not that difficult and you will have it aced after a few tries. The key is to keep the fluid warm so not so give her a cold feeling. This allows an easier path. Wish you all wellTimmy Tomcathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13608362455492496529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-45769299534020936352020-04-03T07:32:15.065-07:002020-04-03T07:32:15.065-07:00Thanks, Julie.

I've had to give fluids to 3 cats over the years, and Jessica currently gets fluids twice a week. I find giving fluids to a cat is easier than giving insulin or testing blood sugars. I recommend that you have one of the vet techs at your vet's office show you how to do it, and then you can find your own rhythm as Eastside Cats correctly stated.Robertahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08993528390901569340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6508973452758369679.post-3247435480501464822020-04-02T16:30:55.033-07:002020-04-02T16:30:55.033-07:00I sure hope that sweet girl feels better.
