Yes it can be dangerous depending on category of wound. So, it is necessary to take Anti Rabies injection and tetanus injection also(same for dog bite also).
Next Steps
visit nearest govt hospital(PHC/CHC etc) and consult the doctor for doses and antibiotics if needed.
Health Tips
Don't take local treatment or pour anything unsterile over the wound.
