Basically you can do this with a blood feather (feathers which have blood running through them, those are feather that are still growing). that needs to be plucked from the base, but i wouldn't recommend doing it yourself. instead getting a few drops of blood would be more convenient, you will need to take Cloudy to the vet in order to have it done.
