Thanks, MC. I just talked to my vet's office -- the Acemannan is already here so we go this afternoon for the first injection. I told them I was concerned because I didn't see her drink water last night or this morning. They said that she might not be thirsty for about 12 hours after the fluids but that they will probably give her more fluids today.

for anyone giving fluids regularly (for crf, etc) you can add the vitamin b complex or whatever to the fluids--3ccs per bag. makes the fluids a rather odd color, but the cats don't seem to mind... i do injectible b-complex shots when necessary--it's so hard to get pills and liquids into the teeny-tiny persian mouth, and they really don't seem to mind the injections very much. (she says, ignoring that still-healing bite on her left index finger where the siberian took exception to her depo/b-complex shot of two weeks ago.)
