What should I do if I am bitten by a cat and scratched it?

You won't get the plague, but you can get rabies, and you're illiterate on the second floor!! Being bitten by your own dog is generally no problem, but if you are bitten by a cat, you must hit it quickly!! In one day.

Under normal circumstances, domestic cats generally do not need to be vaccinated against plague.

It's spring......Went to castrate ......It's best to get vaccinated There is usually no plague but rabies have to be careful Cats can also have rabies I was bitten by my cat a few years ago and bled on the hand and squeezed out the blood and then ignored him, but to be on the safe side, I still went for the vaccine

It's okay, most people already have these immunities. So even if it's scratched, it's still bitten. Just disinfect it and you're good to go. If it were a dog, it wouldn't be the same, 0 0

Of course not, I am often clawed by cats, and it's okay, cats are not afraid, dogs have to be injected.

Being bitten and given a rabies vaccine This is not a trivial matter.

Our friends who have cats at home know that when they are usually idle, they will play with it, frolic with it, and play with it at the same time, regardless of the severity, it is inevitable that some small episodes will occur, and they will be bitten or scratched by it. So do we need to be vaccinated when we are bitten or scratched by a cat?

In many cases, not all cats carry the virus, because their cats go to the vaccination regularly, and their environment is very clean. If it is scratched by the cat at home, the wound is small, and we take the wound to deal with it in time, and the problem becomes very small. You only need to use soapy water to scrub the wound for about 30 minutes, and then use iodine or disinfectant water to wash the wound and disinfect it, and it's basically OK.

If you are bitten by a cat, even if it is a domestic cat, the risk of infection is very high, and I still recommend that you must go to the hospital to get the rabies vaccine, not for anything else, just in case.

If you are very unlucky to be bitten by a wild cat, you must go to the hospital for vaccination, because the living environment of the wild cat is dirty, and it has not been vaccinated, it is difficult to rule out that there are many kinds of viruses in its body, and the probability of infection will be very large.

Finally, remind you that if you are scratched or bitten by a cat, you must take emergency measures as soon as possible, and if it is serious, you must go to the hospital for examination, disinfection, and vaccination.

The degree of scratch is not directly related to the need for rabies vaccination.

The severity of the scratch should be considered for tetanus vaccine ......As for the rabies vaccine, the mental state of the cat and the vaccination status should first be judged.

Cats that are regularly vaccinated, bites and scratches, only need a simple trauma treatment.

Cats with a normal mental state do not need vaccines for scratch bites.

Only mad cats during the onset period, bites and scratches, need to be vaccinated ......

If you see blood, you will be beaten, and if you don't see blood, you will not need it.

**If there is a breakage, it may be infected.

It's best to get vaccinated. It is said that cats have more rabies than dogs.

It's better to get vaccinated. If you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what if.

Analysis: Dogs, cats, and mice belong to an up and down infection chain, if the sick rabies has bitten the cat, and the bitten cat bites the mouse, then the rabies virus will spread between the three animals, and once the rabies infected cat or mouse attacks humans, even if there is only a slight scratch, it can also infect people with rabies.

Step 1: Rinse the wound. Immediately rinse the wound with running water to flush away the virus as much as possible and squeeze the blood out.

If possible, it is best to rinse with 20% soapy water and rinse continuously for 20-30 minutes. Then disinfect with iodine wine, and then wash off the iodine wine with alcohol, and repeat this 3 times.

Step 2: Go to the local epidemic prevention department immediately to get vaccinated, and you must not delay for a few days to get the vaccine. The incubation period of rabies is as short as 10 days, and it can take several years for a long period.

Step 3: If the wound of Chong Hengguo is severely bitten, be sure to inject antiviral serum and use it at the same time as the vaccine. Antiviral serum must be tested first under the guidance of a doctor.

Hello, theoretically, there is such a chance of being infected. It is divided into several cases:

1. Let's not discuss the plague, in fact, if you are bitten by a cat, whether the cat has bitten a mouse or not, the biggest threat is the zoonotic pathogen carried by the cat itself, and the biggest threat is cat rabies, cat-scratch disease and toxoplasmosis infection. Be sure to deal with it promptly!

1) Feline rabies: The pathogen is a virus, which belongs to the same category of viruses as dog rabies, and the sooner it is treated, the better! The rabies virus is mainly present in the saliva of infected cats, and the virus is carried in the first 15 days of clinical manifestations and 10 days after the disappearance of symptoms.

Therefore, whether you are bitten by a dog or a cat, you should be wary of rabies. Unless the biting cat (dog) is consistently healthy cat (or dog), the possibility of rabies cannot be ruled out. The easiest way to do this at home is:

Immediately rinse the wound with plenty of soapy or saline water, in order to flush the wound as much as possible.

Rabies virus should be rinsed for more than half an hour before being smeared with 2% iodine tincture and 75% alcohol, but the wound should not be sutured and bandaged.

Rabies vaccine as early as possible: Rabies vaccination should be given as early as possible, but should be given as many as 5 times as prescribed: i.e. once after the first rabies vaccination.

When the patient moves from the incubation phase to the prodromal phase, the rabies vaccine is no longer effective.

2) Cat-scratch disease: about 10% of pet cats and 33% of stray cats carry Bartonella in their blood. People usually get the disease after being scratched by a cat or in close contact with a cat.

If a person is infected with cat-scratch disease, non-purulent inflammation such as erythema or papules generally appears locally at the scratch and bite site after 3 to 7 days; This is followed by granulomatous or purulent lymph node lesions of the head and face, and the main symptoms are low-grade fever, headache, chills, malaise, anorexia, and vomiting. After the diagnosis of cat-scratch disease, if the symptoms can be treated in time**, the prognosis is generally good, and only immunocompromised people may develop serious systemic diseases, such as heart, brain and other complications, and some may even die.

3) Feline Toxoplasma infection: the greatest threat to girls, have you ever seen the rabbit lip? It is caused by the mother's toxoplasma infection during pregnancy, and the child may be crested lip, anencephaly, cerebral palsy, and brain split, and healthy people will have anemia, jaundice, diarrhea, and high fever.

2. Plague: The chance of plague infection is that if the bitten rat carries the plague bacillus, it is possible to enter the wound through the saliva of the cat and infect people, but the plague is a bacterium after all, and it is not as threatening as cat rabies.

To sum up, I see that your question is a 14-minute premise, my major is veterinary medicine, working in a pet hospital, the sooner the cat rabies is treated, the better, depending on the severity of your wound and whether you have washed it with soap during this period just now, no matter how you deal with it, it is recommended that you go to the rabies vaccine now, the sooner the better, today is the National Day, I don't know if you can get it there, the best effect within 30 minutes. Hope it helps! Wishing you good health!!

Cats do not get plague because they are immune to plague, but if a cat has just bitten a rat with "plague" and then bites a person, it cannot be ruled out that the germs will be transmitted to humans, but this is very unlikely. However, cats can also have various viral germs, such as cat-scratch fever and rabies, so it is best to go to the hospital for a check-up.

If cats and dogs carry the plague virus, it is possible later.

However, it is difficult for domestic cats and dogs to come into contact with the plague virus (at present, the plague virus only exists in some remote epidemic areas in China).

In fact, most animals are low sensitivity to Y. pestis and high resistance, and most of them can recover naturally after infection, and retain plague-specific antibodies (F1 antibodies) in the body for a long time. That is, they have the plague milder than the common cold in humans, and they will not get it again.

Therefore, the possibility of cats and dogs infecting human plague is very, very small, and it is basically zero outside most of the plague-affected areas in China.

But if you are in the plague-plagued area (Qinghai, parts of Gansu, and a small part of Inner Mongolia), then cats and dogs should be cautious.

The plague was a large-scale epidemic. If your home is not an endemic area, then the dog will not get the plague.

Even in endemic areas, dogs are not plague hosts, and even if they bite plague rats, they will not get plague. No, your dog should have been vaccinated, my dog went out to play and put a dead mouse in his mouth, I chased more and more escaped, thinking that I was playing with it, running around with it, and then I hit it to make it spit out, and then there was nothing to do, and I helped it wash it well after going home.

First, the plague is not only obtained by rats, but also by dogs, that is, dogs do not die when they get plague! Bites you! If you get it, you'll die!

Second, there is a friend upstairs who said to get vaccinated! Dogs are basically not vaccinated against plague! Even if you get vaccinated, it's the same as the rabies vaccine, it can't get sick, if it bites you, you get sick, and it becomes a carrier of the virus.

The most important third point is that the rats in China are basically free of the plague virus, this disease is basically extinct in China, only the grassland wild mice in Qinghai Province have this disease, I guess you don't have the opportunity to encounter it.

So it's okay to bite a dead mouse, but a pet dog may have a stomach upset if it eats carrion, it must not be a wild dog, and the digestive system has degenerated!
