We're doing subcutaneous fluids for Little Girl twice a week, to help out her ailing kidneys. I've now administered the fluids on my own twice.
She leaks.

The most recent time was totally my fault. I was staring at the fluid level in the bag to see if it was alllll the way down to the line yet, and the needle fell out of the cat, and the last tablespoon of Ringer's poured onto my carpet. Oops. :-)
But the previous time I'm not sure what I could have done differently. It was all in there, and then, gradually throughout the evening, an awful lot of it dripped out down her back. She showed no discomfort at all, but I was a bit unhappy about it. My cat leaks.
