If the cat bite involved direct contact with skin (even without bleeding), it is considered Category II exposure as per WHO guidelines. Rabies post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) is recommended.
Next Steps
Start the anti-rabies vaccine (ARV) series as soon as possible Consider Tetanus toxoid (TT) if not taken in the last 5 years.
Health Tips
Even a superficial bite or saliva contact on broken skin can carry risk if the animal is stray or unvaccinated. Do not delay. Follow the full vaccine schedule and observe the cat if possible.
