Kitten bite

2021-07-01 15:26:33
I got bitten by my newly adopted kitten in the thumb an hour ago, while giving her a treat. But only her canine teeth punctured in my skin 'cause the other one was prevented by my nail. It's a small needle like wound which bled a little. I immediately washed and applied savlon over it. My kitten is 3 months old and is not yet vaccinated, should I get an anti-rabies injection?
