A really bad idea.
 

This is a horrible idea. Taking out the fact that this cheapens LVT's and degrades veterinary medicine on the whole, this indangers patients. What training will they receive to make sure the site is sterile? That they aren't damaging the cath causing possible thromboembolism. IVC's are indwelling and potentially a source of infection, the fact this is even up for discussion is  ridiculous.
