Has anyone administered fluid therapy at home to a cat with renal failure/kidney disease?

Oregon Gal asked:


We are considering hydrating our 15 year old cat Bosco with fluids by doing it ourselves at home. Just wondering how easy this is to administer and would like to get an idea of the cost. I know prices vary across the US so I am just looking for a range. Bosco is fortunately a very mellow cat and has always been an excellent patient.
