Injection tips, please!

I've had to start giving my cat injections with an insulin syringe and I feel like I'm messing it up. I try to make a tent at the scruff of his neck with three fingers and then put the needle in low, but often it bends or won't go in. I think it's the angle I'm getting wrong. Any pro tips for me?

Practice on an orange til you get the hang of it.

(With water, obviously. Not insulin. Not that the orange will mind.)

We found a sharp needle was so much easier- you’d be surprised how many blunt ones there are.
