Hello! Firstly don’t panic, because you didn’t get scratches or bleeding, it’s highly recommended that you are far from being infected with rabies. I understand the anxiety of being exposed but according to me you’re in safe place as per your description of situation. If you need any help or have any doubts regarding to this, just let me know.

Next Steps

Don’t overthink just relax no precaution needed

Since there has been no break in the skin and no bleeding or scratches it is highly unlikely that there is transmission of rabies. You have nothing to worry. Whatever injection you have taken is prophylactic and will protect you for a few years.

Do not panic. Rabies virus doesn't transmit on collision. It will only get transmitted if u have any scratch or wound on the affected area and the cat or dog saliva came in contact with that scratch or wound. U don't have either of it in your history. U have already taken Post exposure prophylaxis so already preventive measure is taken. So nothing to worry at all.

Rabies can last for several years but you can't stand on one leg for several years. You have to face the situation the way it folds itself. You can make your life more miserable by worrying day in and day out. The choice is yours. You have taken enough treatment as per the existing knowledge.
