Next, try “rolling” the vein with your thumb from the inside of the leg towards the outside by moving the skin just below the elbow. Gradually get them used to having their right leg gently pushed forward a few inches. Standing next to your cat, hug their head from underneath with your left hand while your right hand picks up their right leg under the elbow, then treat. After they’re used to the pressure, apply the Y, rub back and forth on one side of the neck with your opposite fingers, then treat and let go.Īnother common blood draw site is the cephalic vein, which runs on top of the forearm. Gently press your hand against your cat’s throat just above the collarbone, then treat and release. While facing your cat, move your thumb apart from the other fingers to make a Y. Next, train from the perspective of the person drawing blood.
