The world's smallest insulin syringes

Looks like it doesn't have larger increments (more space between markings), so would not be any better than a standard 3/10cc u100 syringe. Plus, I bet they are really expensive.

What we really need is a 1/10cc syringe, or even a 2/10cc would be better.
 
It looks like it's still not available in the US yet and is a 3/10cc(?) with no half-unit markings.

It might also be a problem for us injecting our cats because:
[Patrick Martinsson's] good friend, Ivar Frischer, then chief designer at SAAB Automobile, came into the story. He made a simple-but-brilliant observation: every existing syringe in the world was designed for injecting into someone else! Diabetics inject themselves. He designed the syringe that is Daily Dose today by placing the grip which every other syringe has at the top of the barrel, at the bottom of the barrel just above the needle. This allowed the syringe to be made even smaller, and to be used back-to-front. The syringe is gripped between thumb and second finger and operated with the index finger. In this way the device is used in an inverted fashion and is hidden in the hand when used: near invisible!
