Good Morning, Lantus Land Neighbors!

We're sending out lots of healing thoughts and hugs to the kitties and beans who need them today.

Yesterday Clare did a dive we'd never seen before: she dove, leveled off, dove again, and leveled off again. She seems to be training for an Olympic event! :roll: We never know what she'll be working on next.

There was a harvest moon last night, so dark and beautiful. We heard the coyotes calling in the woods. So glad our kitties are home safe and warm. :smile:

Have a great day, Everyone!

A question about syringes:

We'd like to start using calipers for dosing and it looks like we should get the Terumo syringes. There don't seem to be any pharmacies that have access to them here and neither does our vet, so we'll order them online.

My husband does the shots and prefers to use the longer-needled syringes. So I'm wondering if we can use those and still work with the measurements that Marje has connected with her video on the subject?

Thanks,

Georgette

Looks like Clare is taking the the slide down today rather than the bungee cords. But Tess she's going to have to work harder to get that gold medal!

The length of the needle doesn't make any difference on measuring the dose, it's just what you are most comfortable with. I think all of us who use the Terumos get them on line.

We have calipers we used for Zener's dosing, they were life-savers, well...bean sanity savers for sure.

If you would like them, please send a PM with your address and we will happily post them to you. They are well used and full of love.

I hope Clare clears her bounce soon. I'm so happy I started using calipers for Furball's dosing. It really helps to get a consistent dose. It's amazing and sad how off the lines on syringes can be.
