It is impossible to make something out of nothing, unless it is impossible to judge during the incubation period.
Therefore, the cognition that "cats don't get rabies" cannot be subjectively judged, and objective conclusions are needed, so let's talk about it.
For example, in 2010, domestic dogs and cats were investigated for rabies and toxoplasmosis. Of the 75 saliva samples from domestic cats, 5 were positive for rabies virus (positive rate, 7 suspicious samples). Anti-home dogs, due to domestic conditions and good vaccination conditions, the results of saliva samples are negative (send a screenshot at the bottom to prove the data**).
This proves that cats can be infected with the rabies virus in a possible free-range condition, but the owner does not find out due to the incubation period.
This is mentioned to remind cats that the state of "free-range, raised, and stray" is more important than observing the appearance.
As far as I personally understand the situation, the order of risk is: wandering, free-range, and raising. This is true even with the annual vaccination of pets.
Then, if it is judged in a free-range or wandering state, it is inevitable that the risk in the city is smaller than that in the villages and towns, because compared with the cities, the visible wild animals in the villages and towns are more frequent, and whether they are wandering or free-range, they are more likely to come into contact with higher-level disease sources (such as voles, fleas, etc.).
And then there's something else, like the ...... of "physical health, incubation period".Actually, it doesn't make much sense. If you are unsure, it is best to get vaccinated within the validity period after the injury (including scratches). Then vaccinate your pet regularly and keep it hygienic.

To transmit rabies, you need to have a rabies virus, do you say that if you don't get rabies, you have no symptoms or that the cat doesn't carry the rabies virus? If it is the former, it is not necessarily, and if it is the latter, it will not be contagious.

1.Under normal circumstances, as long as the cat does not carry the rabies virus, the cat will not transmit and answer the rabies virus after biting, but the wound needs to be cleaned in time after being bitten.
2.Rabies virus is mainly transmitted through damaged ** or mucous membranes, if you are worried that your cat is infected with rabies virus, you can take it to a pet hospital to check the corresponding antibody level.
3.The precautionary measure against rabies is to bring it to the Pet Shed Kuanwu Hospital every year for rabies vaccination.

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%.
-
There are about 40 to 50 fatalities from cat bites in the country every year.
Deaths from cat bites are mainly due to infection with the rabies virus, which then leads to the onset of rabies.
After being bitten by a cat, it is necessary to squeeze out the wound with blood, then wash the wound with running water and soapy water, and disinfect it with iodine. And go to the CDC within 24 hours for a combination of rabies vaccine and rabies immune globulin.
Prevention of rabies.
The most effective and cost-effective way to prevent rabies is to immunize animals such as cats and dogs. In particular, animal immunization, free rabies vaccination for pets, and good control of the source of infection. It is hoped that through multi-sectoral collaboration, rabies will be eliminated as soon as possible.
Rabies is preventable and incurable, and eradicating rabies requires the participation of the whole population. What citizens can do is to raise pets in a civilized manner, such as vaccinating pets against rabies every year, not deliberately provoking cats and dogs, and leashing dogs when walking dogs.

Perhaps, after being bitten by a cat, the bleeding should first be considered for their own safety, and go to the designated hospital for rabies vaccination, because the cat itself carries bacteria, not necessarily without rabies virus.
-
Yes, if you are bitten, you will.

Cats can get rabies.
Rabies is an infectious disease caused by the rabies virus, which invades the central nervous system when an animal or person is infected with the rabies virus, causing symptoms to appear. Animals that can carry the rabies virus include domestic animals such as dogs, cats, pigs, cows, and horses, as well as wild animals such as bats, raccoons, skunks, wolves, and foxes. Rabies is mainly transmitted through the bite of animals carrying the rabies virus, whose saliva carries the rabies virus and invades the body through the wound to cause infection.
Rabies is the most dangerous viral disease of all infectious diseases, and once it occurs, the case fatality rate is extremely high. Ordinary people can prevent the disease by getting vaccinated or by getting an immunoglobulin injection in the hospital after being bitten.
The main source of rabies infection is animals carrying the rabies virus, not only dogs, among domestic animals, dogs are the mainstay, followed by cats, as well as pigs, cows, horses, etc., rabies can be transmitted.
The main source of rabies infection in China is sick dogs, 80%-90% of rabies are caused by bites of sick dogs, and some healthy dogs can also carry rabies virus in their saliva, which can also transmit rabies. If you are scratched or bitten by a cat, you will also need to follow the rabies prevention procedure. Not all people are infected with the disease, about 15% 20% of people who are bitten by sick dogs without preventive injections, and about 50% 60% of people who are bitten by sick wolves are sick.
On the premise of ensuring that it does not hurt you, put it in a cage, do not kill, but isolate, observe, eat and drink every day, if it is still alive after 10 days, then no matter how similar its symptoms are to rabies, it is not rabies. Don't simply kill a cat or dog because it's manic, any animal, including a human, will be irritable when it's seriously ill. You should at least observe whether the cat is afraid of water, as long as it is thirsty and can drink water on its own, do not kill it easily, but isolate and observe for 10 days. >>>More
As long as you are sure that it is not the diseased cat, you and your friends have little chance of getting infected! 1% probable! Observe that as long as your boyfriend is fine, you're safe! Rabies dogs are the hosts, and the chance of cat infection is very small!
Dogs don't get rabies on their own for no reason.
Dogs that usually have normal manifestations do not carry the rabies virus, only sick dogs and rabies virus carriers carry the rabies virus. However, rabies can be infected by humans and various animals, and its causative agent is the rabies virus. >>>More
The practice of accidentally getting rabies.
No, it is not completely ** after having rabies, and the mortality rate after having rabies is also 100%, and the main thing for rabies is active prevention at present. >>>More
