I did it! And no eyes were scratched out in the process

I successfully managed to give my sick 13yr old kitty, Erin, her IV sub-Q. Timing probably wasn't as her Vet planned. But I managed to stick her, and get some much needed fluids in.

She's had some chronic problems, but has lost WAY too much weight, now down to 6.2 pounds, from her nomal of 8.5. Last night she woke me throwing up - fortunately on the floor. So after I cleaned the mess, I decided getting extra fluids would help her feel better than waiting until morning for her scheduled dose.

This morning she ate some breakfast. Hopefully she'll keep that down.

Here she is when she was feeling a bit better, doing one of her favorite things. catching a sunbeam.
