I would NOT want to give any cat shots ! You are a brave man. I hope you have your will/trust/whatever straightened out...
We've been giving sub-cutaneous fluids to one or more cats for coming on two years now. B12 shots are pretty routine. Various other shots in various cats means I'm sticking a kitty a couple times a week. I'd rather stick 'em than pill 'em....

Been injecting myself with anti-TNF drugs for 5+ years. A bit uncomfortable, but poking myself with needles doesn't make me squeamish.

Closest I come to getting uneasy around needles is when I have to get steroid injections. In my eyeball. Ain't no looking away from that needle.
