How can we help and do we try again today to give her the saline?? Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | 6 lbs

Sorry that Tristan is having this issue. How cold is cold? Are you keeping the saline in the refrigerator? If so, I don't recommend you do that and it is not necessary. She can "recover" from cold saline but it is better if the saline is room temperature. Yes, you can give the saline again as scheduled just make sure it is not cold. Hope this helps. Best wishes.
