Hi, rabies is potentially deadly disease. This anxiety and multiple questions floating in your mind. Imp to note a few points - If your cat bit you 11 months ago and is still healthy, it is almost certain she does not have rabies. Rabies is fatal in animls within 10–14 days once symptoms appear. During the incubation period, the virus stays hidden in the body and does not spread through saliva. Rabies only becomes contagious a few days before symptms show. A cat cannot live for 10–11 months while carrying rabies without showing signs. If your cat is eating, playing nd behaving normally, she is not incubating rabies. Rabies spreads only through the saliva of a rabid animal via bites. A home-kept cat with no exposure to stray or wild animals is very low risk For your peace of mind, you are safe, and your cat is not a threat.TT injection was correct at that time. Still, it’s good to vaccinate your cat for her protection and your mental relief. 🙏

Animals can't spread rabies during the incubation period. Only after the get the disease properly they can spread it. Once the get rabies the can't survive more than 10 days. So in your case you are not under any risk.
