Default Re: Euthanasia

Where I work, if it's dog or cat we always get IV access before euthanasia and place a catheter to inject through, even if they're in really bad shape. It's far less stressful and painful for them. I wouldn't feel comfortable restraining an animal to be euthanised straight into a vital organ.
Obviously anaesthetic gas is always always our go to before injection for smaller furries.
