    If you keep it at home all the time and don't go out to fool around with other animals, it's generally fine.

    If you are timid, go to get vaccinated quickly, not because you suspect that your cat has rabies, but at least you are sure and can concentrate on what you need to do. I myself am, I don't fight because I'm always worried that one day I'll get sick and die. Of course, now that I am caught every day, I am slowly getting used to it.

    If your cat is free-range and goes out every day to grab territory, mates, and fights with other wild cats, then it is better to get vaccinated quickly.

    The general treatment process is available online: squeeze as much blood as possible, then wash it with soap and water for 20 minutes, put iodophor on it, and then rush to the hospital to get vaccinated. If the scratch wound is large and deep and close to the brain, it is best to inject immune proteins.

    In addition, there is a 7-day observation method. That is, if your cat does not die of rabies within 7 days after scratching you, you are safe. This is because even animals that carry the rabies virus are only contagious at the time of illness. I don't know if it's true or not, I saw it on the Internet.

    However, there is also an infectious disease called "cat-scratch disease", which sounds like a copycat, but it does exist. However, even if you are infected, you will not die. You can check what is going on.

    I have the impression that when I was sub-healthy, I always felt that I had "cat scratch disease". If the cat has been kept indoors for a long time and has been vaccinated against rabies before, then there is basically no special treatment, just take a flush with running water and disinfect it. But if the cat goes out a lot, then you should first take running water for 10 minutes, three times, and then go to the hospital to get a rabies vaccine.

    Take it safe, because rabies is a preventable and incurable disease, so it's better to be cautious!

    If you are scratched by a cat while playing with a cat, the first thing to know is whether the cat has been vaccinated against rabies. If it is a pet cat that has been vaccinated, there is generally no need to worry, just clean the wound, and then pay attention to trimming the cat's paws.

    If you are scratched by a stray cat that has not been vaccinated against rabies, you must immediately rinse the wound with plenty of water, and if it bleeds, squeeze out the bruise in the wound, and then apply iodophor to the wound for disinfection. After being scratched by a stray cat, you must be vaccinated against rabies within 24 hours, and if the wound bleeds, you must also inject serum protein.

    The first thing you need to do is to keep washing the wound with water and soap, which can destroy the bacteria on the surface and prevent toxic bacteria from entering the human body. Then it needs to be disinfected with iodophor or alcohol, which can be painful but necessary.

    If it is a vaccinated domestic cat, it will generally be fine after doing the above operations, but if it is a wild cat, then you need to go to the hospital in time to get a rabies vaccine, because we do not know whether the rabies virus is in the body of a wild cat, and a rabies vaccine will be more reassuring.

    The last thing to do is to cut the cat's nails regularly, cat nails grow very fast, if you don't cut them for a period of time, they will grow very sharp, and the shovelers can only avoid being scratched by cats by cutting their nails regularly. Of course, if your cat resists when it comes to cutting its nails, then you can wrap it in a bath towel so that it doesn't get scratched.

Be sure to get a rabies shot! Rabies can be latent for more than ten years without attacking, and once it occurs, it will not be saved and may hurt relatives, so you must go to vaccination.
