    After being scratched by a cat, it needs to be disinfected immediately, and the common disinfection measure is to scrub with soap and water for 15 minutes, and iodine solution alcohol can also be used. After the owner is disinfected, he needs to go to the hospital within 24 hours to get the rabies vaccine. Don't leave anything to chance, even though animals that are not in the middle of a rabies outbreak are not contagious, but in order to reduce the risk of infection to near zero, please go to the hospital as soon as possible to get a rabies vaccination.

    Hello, you were caught by a kitten's paw, so has the kitten you pawed to you been vaccinated? If you haven't had a vaccination, you're going to have to go to the hospital right now for a rabies shot. Whether this will happen or not?

    No. In recent years, rabies deaths in China have been dog bites, and there has not been a single case caused by cat scratches in the United States in 75 years (and it is under the premise that doctors do not encourage vaccinations after being scratched by cats).

    In medicine, scientists divide animals into several categories according to their sensitivity to rabies, among them, dogs are susceptible animals, and cats are extremely susceptible animals, which means that cats are more susceptible to rabies than dogs.

    If you are bitten and scratched by a cat, you should never take it lightly. Although rabies is terrible, the injured should pay attention to cleaning and disinfecting the wound before to avoid bacterial infection, and inject rabies vaccine and rabies serum in time.

    Cats can only spread rabies when they are sick, and when the disease is dismantled, the cat looks very abnormal, if it is a normal cat scratching you, it will not be 100%.

    The probability of being scratched by a cat and getting a rabies vaccine is about the same as buying a 2 yuan lottery ticket and winning 500w.

    First of all, even if the cat that does not get sick carries the rabies virus, it will not transmit rabies, a female cat who is still feeding the kitten, obviously does not have the disease (if the disease occurs, it will become a mad cat and will not protect the kitten), and rabies will not be transmitted from mother to child, and the kitten is basically impossible to have rabies.

    Then, a cycle of rabies vaccine is close to about 500 yuan, which is still very expensive.

    However, the most important thing is that getting the rabies vaccine can reassure you, if you don't get it, you will worry about whether you will get rabies every day, and then cause a lot of psychological pressure, which will slowly increase over time, even for several years.

    My advice is this, if you think you are mentally good enough, don't think about it, don't search for anything related to rabies, and after two days you forget that you have been scratched by a cat, and that's the best.

    If your psychological quality is average, and you have checked a lot of information about rabies (in fact, a lot of information on the Internet is exaggerated), it is better to get a rabies vaccine, which can reassure you, but remember that you must get a rabies vaccine within 24 hours.

    Just flush it with soapy water. Cats do not have rabies. To date, there has not been a single case of rabies scratched or bitten by a cat. Do not worry. As long as it's not inflamed.

    Domestic cats are generally not aggressive, but sometimes when the cat is teasing or the cat's nails are too long and not trimmed in time, the cat is unintentionally scratched, thinking that the cat will not have any bacteria, so the wound is ignored. In fact, if the cat's paw carries germs, if it is not treated in time, it will be diseased, leading to serious consequences.

    If the wound is shallow, it can be disinfected with alcohol, rinsed with running water for a while, and then applied to the wound with iodine to stop the bleeding naturally, and then no treatment can be carried out and it will heal slowly. If the wound is deep and the area is relatively large, the wound can be repeatedly rinsed with sterilized saline for half an hour, and then disinfected with alcohol and iodine can be applied. Although the wound is deep, it cannot be bandaged or sutured unless the bleeding does not stop.

    It is important to note that cats with zoonotic diseases such as rabies, cat's claw fever, and tetanus can transmit the disease to humans through wounds. Generally speaking, the chance of getting sick is relatively small, but for the sake of the insurance department, it is best to go to the veterinary hospital for examination. If the cat is not sick, it is okay to let the wound heal naturally after cleaning and disinfection, but if the cat is sick, on the one hand, you have to give the cat **, on the other hand, you have to go to the hospital immediately to vaccinate yourself to prevent yourself from getting sick.

    If the cat is unfortunately infected with rabies (your own cat has a relatively small chance of getting sick, but it is not impossible, you must check it out), the cat should be killed immediately and buried deeply, and at the same time, you must go to the health and epidemic prevention station to be fully vaccinated against rabies. Because the rabies vaccine needs to be given within 24 hours of being bitten, you need to find out if your cat has rabies as early as possible, and if it is suspected but not confirmed, it is also necessary to get vaccinated, just in case.

    Cats are very cute animals, which arouse the pity of many people, but when we see such a cute cat, we can't forget the dangers it carries while loving it, protect the cat, and protect ourselves.
