44. Those should be very fine needles, both for the shot and the blood test.
The cat probably won't even feel the needles.

I have been giving my cat a chemotherapy medicine by mouth each day for the last two years, for his cancer. I think a cat would notice that a lot more than a very fine needle, but he forgets all about the medicine mere minutes after I give it to him.

My cat's diagnosis was lymphosarcoma ... a fairly aggressive systemic cancer. They said there was no way he would survive more than nine months. Not only did he survive nine months but his sonograms now show the remnants of his cancer, that could not be removed by surgery ... are now gone. (He also was getting an intravenous chemotherapy from the vet, once a month).
