What syringe to do a cat to do?

The body of the cat is many times less human. Therefore, the doses of drugs provided for injection are also minimal.

Depending on the place of their input, use the syringe:

• insulin
• for 2-3 cubes

Use the first for injections in the withers, or subcutaneously, a cat, and the second in the thigh, or intramuscularly.

• If the thickness of the needle at the syringe is large, replace it with another with a smaller diameter.
• Be sure to unpack a new syringe before injection of the medication to the cat.
• The option is acceptable when you immediately prepared a solution from one bottle of dry powder and scored the necessary doses in several new syringes. In this case, store them in the refrigerator with dressed caps on needles.
• Never touch the needle of the syringe that you are going to make an injection to the animal.

• pierce the skin and move deeper another 1-1.5 cm
• you will feel resistance, but, having reached the desired depth of the needle under the skin, it will disappear
