What if I was scratched by a cat, there was no bleeding, but I just broke a little skin

I was scratched by a cat without a single bruise, and I didn't get a rabies shot, so I have 40 days to do.

If the skin is slightly broken and there is no bleeding after being scratched by a cat, the wound should be cleaned and disinfected immediately, and rabies vaccination is generally not required. Because not all cats carry rabies virus, according to statistics, only about 3% of people are infected with rabies virus due to cat bites, and it is extremely rare to be infected by cat scratches. Rinse the broken skin with plenty of running water (20% soapy water is best) for more than 20 minutes, and then disinfect it alternately with iodine and pharmaceutical alcohol.

If you are scratched by a cat of unknown origin, it is best to go to the hospital for rabies vaccination in time for safety.

1. Vaccinate your pets against rabies in a timely manner and deworm them regularly to prevent them from happening;

2. Don't tease the puppies and kittens outside at will to prevent them from being attacked;

It is recommended that rabies vaccination is better, and if it is a wild cat, it is even more necessary to vaccinate.

1. Being slightly scratched and bleeding by a cat is a trivial matter, but for the sake of insurance, it is necessary to get a rabies vaccine. It is not based on the size of the wound to judge the amount of charge, generally bitten or scratched by an outside carnivorous animal, for the sake of personal safety, must be treated according to the rabies wound, clean the wound as soon as possible, and then immediately go to the hospital to inject rabies vaccine, etc., to avoid rabies or tetanus.

2. The earlier the rabies vaccine is given, the better, and the first time you get it is within 48 hours of being bitten. At present, the rabies vaccine is generally 5 shots per course, and the specific time is to inject one every other 3 days, 7 days, 14 days, and 30 days after the first shot. If the wound is serious, it is necessary to seek medical attention in time and follow the doctor's arrangement, after all, the mortality rate of rabies is extremely high, so it should be considered carefully.

If you are bitten and the wound is not treated in time and the rabies vaccine is not given, then the amount of the first dose of the vaccine will be increased by 2-3 times so that the desired effect will be achieved, which is one of the reasons why it will be expensive.
