: [Felvtalk] Giving sub-q fluids
Gary, you say you get fluids, etc from a medical supply house. May I ask
their name or will just any supply house do?

won't be
able to tell how much you use. You can fix it by pumping in some air through
the med port on the bag with an empty syringe.

You got that right
would be pretty hot and need to be run out
first. I always test on the inside of my wrist (like with a babies bottle)
before I give fluid to a kitty.

What about the 23 gauge? That's even smaller, correct? Does it work okay
or does it take forever

Yes, even the smallest needles work, they just take a lot longer. Sometimes,
when you notice that the drip isn’t fast enough, even though you’ve opened it
up, lift up the skin, or move the needle around. Often
is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me
sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain

I've used the 20 UTW on 8 week
Maureen, I use the Terumo UTW 20 gauge needles. UTW = ultra thin wall A UTW
20 will have the same flow rate as those 18 gauge kitty harpoons.
I get mine online from Thriving Pets.

Maureen,
I never use those horse needles for cats; I prefer the 20x1, and often
use 18x1 as well - it may take a little bit longer, but goes in a lot
easier, especially for kittens. Some cats have tough skin, and others have
super soft skin and the needle just glides right in. Getting the
upon
unconsenting animals is the basis of my enmity toward it, and it is to me
sufficient justification of the enmity without looking further.” – Mark Twain

When my renal cat, Spader was alive, I used the Monoject 20's and my vets
matched the prices from Brico Online. Holly
