Max

[Medusa]

So good to read that Max is doing better. My local vet receptionist told me that I could reuse the needles as long as I wiped them w/alcohol before insertion but she said to do it a maximum of one time (for a total of using the same needle twice) because the needle would get dull. I didn't want to hurt my Puddy, so after one or two times of that, I started using a fresh new needle each time and I do the same w/Pidge. My local vet has only one person watching the desk at all times, so I go there only for routine things. It's tough when you love the vet but can't stand the help. My other vet who is much farther away is great and so are his staff. It makes quite a difference in our outlook when we know that everyone is on our side. Please know that we pray w/out ceasing here, Slick.

Yeah Max! I am so glad you are better. I was really worried about you the last couple of days! Thank your Meowmie for taking such good care of you. Hugs and kisses and be nice for your meds, okay?

I am glad that Max is doing so much better after his stay with the vet.

You should only use a needle ONCE. More than once it will develop little burrs and loose it's sharpness causing pain and discomfort when they are injected under the skin.

BTW, you know that you can buy all the supplies online including the fluids and necessary equipment. I like my vet but they are mucho$$$$, so it was cheaper to order everyone from the Internet.

Actually, I was going to suggest what the above post has just done, and that is buying CRF supplies via the internet. On the CRF site that I posted, was where I found the place I use. Brico, here in Edison, NJ. They cannot be any nicer, and our vet cannot bet the prices.....Maybe it would be worth a try instead of buying needles and other supplies from your vet....Hope Max is having a really good Sunday....you, too.....

Yes, I always buy my cats medicine online. Waaay cheaper!
