    Yes.

    If you are bitten or scratched by rabies, suspected rabies, or an animal that is not sure whether you have rabies, you should go to the rabies exposure clinic for treatment as soon as possible.

    The principle of rabies exposure management is to prevent the rabies virus from entering the central nervous system and causing rabies. Typical processes include:

    One is to fully rinse to reduce the amount of virus in the wound, and at the same time rinse with alkaline soapy water, which has a destructive effect on the virus;

    the second is to infiltrate and inject rabies immune globulin around the wound, which can neutralize the rabies virus at the wound site;

    The third is to inject rabies vaccine in time to prevent the occurrence of rabies.

    Possible reactions after rabies vaccination:

    Within 24 hours after receiving the rabies vaccine, redness, swelling, pain, and itchiness may appear at the injection site, which generally relieves on its own without treatment; There may be mild fever, weakness, headache, dizziness, arthralgia, muscle pain, vomiting, abdominal pain, etc., which usually resolve on their own without treatment.

    In a few cases, if there is a moderate or higher febrile reaction, physical cooling methods can be used first, and antipyretic analgesics can be used if necessary; Hives may also develop within 72 hours of vaccination, and if there is a reaction, you should go to the hospital and be given antihistamines**.

    In very special cases, anaphylactic shock may occur, which generally occurs within a few minutes to tens of minutes after the injection of vaccine, and is manifested as rapid onset of **congestion, flushing, itching, etc.; If you have the above symptoms after vaccination, you should go to a nearby medical institution with emergency conditions as soon as possible**.

    The above content refers to People's Daily Online - If you are scratched and bitten by a cat or dog, please go to the corresponding outpatient clinic as soon as possible.

I have my own cat, I was scratched by a cat and generally observed whether my cat was abnormal, if it was sick within a week, it would have to go to the hospital for injections, if it was okay, it would be basically fine, if you were not at ease, go to the hospital to lay it.

    I've been caught a few times, and it's all tears when I say it.

    If your cat has been vaccinated and effective + not a deep wound, you can not be vaccinated.

    If your cat has not been vaccinated or expired, you should be vaccinated against rabies, and if you have a deep wound, you should also add tetanus.

    Let's go to the hospital, it's just more than 200 yuan, and I just hit it in June.

    It is recommended to still get vaccinated. Although cats are very cute little animals, they will inevitably get angry at times, so be careful when playing with cats. If you are accidentally scratched by a cat and there is a little blood, under normal circumstances, if there is a little skin injury, the problem is not very big.

    If the cat in the house basically does not go out and is always at home, it will not be infected with rabies under normal circumstances. But for the sake of safety, the doctor still recommends to take a shot, don't think that just a little bleeding is fine, after all, the cat must have bacteria scratching its paws in various places all day long, and it must be more reassuring to get a vaccine. In addition, you should also pay attention to protect yourself when playing with cats to minimize scratches.

    Need.

    After being scratched and bleeding by a vaccinated cat, it is also necessary to get an injection. Although the cat has been vaccinated and the probability of being infected with the rabies virus is very small, the rabies virus can be latent in the cat's body for a long time without getting sick.

    If the cat has been infected with the rabies virus before vaccination, even if the cat is vaccinated, it cannot destroy the rabies virus in the cat, so it is recommended to go to the hospital for rabies vaccination just in case. The main reason is that the mortality rate of rabies is particularly high, and it is more reassuring to have been vaccinated.

    Precautions for raising cats to prevent scratches

    Clause. 1. Cut the cat's nails. Rest your nails regularly, and when your nails are blunt and short, it will naturally be difficult to scratch people.

    Clause. 2. Prepare the cat scratching board. Cats have hunting instincts, even if the nails are cut short, it still likes to scratch things, so prepare a cat scratching board, when it wants to practice grinding its claws, it can vent well, and when it finishes venting, it will not easily show **.

    Clause. 3. Don't put your fingers to its mouth when playing, cats will have the urge to bite when they see small, moving objects, because their eyes are more sensitive to moving objects.

    Clause. Fourth, don't touch the cat's scales. There are some places where a cat does not like to be touched, typically the abdomen and hind legs.

    If the cat is not completely relaxed, it will easily be disgusted by touching these areas and will instinctively attack you with its hind legs.

    As long as you are bitten and scratched by a cat, for the sake of safety, the possibility of infection cannot be ruled out, and rabies vaccination should be given in time. In general, the wound after a person is bitten by a cat should be treated in time, and the wound should be thoroughly rinsed with soap and water in time, and the wound should be disinfected with alcohol to avoid infection and inflammation.

    Note that if the cat suffers from some zoonotic diseases, it is possible to transmit the disease to humans through wounds, such as rabies, cat-scratch fever, pasteurellosis, tetanus and other systemic diseases and staphylococcus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and other local infections.
