I had to wrap Erin in a towel, and do some contortionist moves, but I managed to get her stuck. Sometimes she escaped, sometimes I didn't get her restuck, and sometimes I stuck me. Once in full dispair I took her back to the clinic for help. Generally she'd growl, doing a very good Lion imitation, and she'd bite & hold, to let me know she was irritated. I figured she had that right. But my motivation like yours, was that without the IV therapy, I knew she'd very quickly spiral down, and I wasn't ready to quit.

It is definitely easier with two people.

My heart goes out to you Aggie_Ama, and to Maggie. IV sticks are never fun, even with sharp needles.
