Some clear tubing (aka surgical tubint). You can get it at most auto stores or a hardware store. I think the inner diameter is about 1/4"-3/8". It doesn't have to be perfect, just big enough to get it on there and small enough to keep fluid from leaking out. Get about 4' of it so you don't have to worry about the catch can falling over because it's right next to your feet.

When using the power bleeder, I put the new fluid in the power bleeder tank and run the tube from the bleeder screw into the empty brake fluid can so there's nothing to clean later.
