Jenn if not under skin? I want to help this little guy not harm
him!

I've used ringer's sub-q lots of times over the past 2-3 years and never
had any problem with the skin. Have never heard of that side effect - and
have used on everything from bottle babies to
a 19-yr-old.

I thought you couldn't give lactated ringer's sub-q because it would cause the skin
to slough off. The vet I used to work for told me this... to be very careful to not
get the lactated ringer's mixed up with the saline, because if you give lactated
ringers under the skin, it does serious damage to the tissue, and can make the cat's
skin actually SLOUGH OFF of their body. Maybe she was just trying to scare me into
getting the right bag the first time...

I collect KMR kitten ! formula labels for Bazil, a 3 yr old special needs cat who must

Bazil's caretaker collects labels and sends them to KMR, where they add up until she
earns a free can of formula!
PLEASE save your KMR kitten formula labels for Bazil!
If you use KMR, even just one can, please email me for the NEW address to send them
to!
