Rabies vaccine

2021-10-21 09:08:04
My finger had abrasion in it and I petted a stray cat who looked friendly. It did not scratch or bite me but it's fur was slightly moist, I am 95% sure there was no direct saliva contact . 2 days later I saw cat again and it looked ok mostly although slight redness around both eyes. I started first dose of vaccine on 3rd day. Will I be ok ? Picture of abrasion attached.
