Cat Scratch and little blood.

2022-12-20 10:03:38
I got bit by a cat 3 months ago by a stray cat that lives at my house ( not vaccinated). I got 3 rabies vaccination on 0,3,7 days. Today she scratched me again while Playing and there was little blood. Should I get vaccinated again or ignore? I washed the wound with soap and water and then applied Dettol on it. Thanks!
