Sometimes all thats needed is to see the needle.

I was feeding some baby mice some milk yesterday night, and I went to get one out, and it was fitting, by the time I got it to triage it had stopped fitting but was loosing consious, and breathing illregulary, basically it looked like it was time to go to the bridge, the nurse knew this and said that all she could do to try and help it was to give it a injection, at this point the mouse had its eyes open again, but was barely breathing, so it was on my hand, as soon as the needle started coming near it, it got up jumped off my hand, and it took three of us half an hour to then find this 'dieing' mouse.

So who needs to be injected with anything, you can get better results by just seeing the needle

Oh how good is that, run little mousey run. No wonder the mouse recovered and ran away, imagine how big a needle would look to it .

I would revive and run if I saw a needle heading in my direction!

I hope the little mousey is OK.

LOL that made me giggle, I thought as well that when he saw the needle that would be him taking his trip to the bridge. Funny how needles do that to EVERYONE! Me included
