Mortimer's Needles
POST # 2592

To help Mortimer's kidney function (one of his potential causes for weight loss), we recently started to give him IV fluids. We got a starter kit from our vet, but just got a box full of supplies that included 100 needles! It seems like a crazy amount, but since we got 12 bags of Lactated Ringer's solution, we might actually need all the needles. So much for Shannan's dislike of needles.

Aww, poor baby! And I feel you, Shannon.

Awwww, I'm sorry to hear this. I do hope he's OK. I can't imagine giving my cats injections. But I guess after the first few times it gets much easier. Am I right?
