I feel like an idiot. I am needing to give my cat subq fluids. It's ultra triggering for me. Tonight I had everything set and got the cat as settled as she gets but the needle touched my thumb before I stuck the cat. I didn't see any blood. No idea if I flushed the needle. Can't remember. I know I gave the cat fluids. A few seconds after sticking her I looked down and my thumb was gushing blood. Didn't stop for about ten minutes even with pressure.
Do you think blood transfer that small could hurt my cat? Probably a stupid question but I'm terrified. Subq is one of the few things I blank out on.
