Retake dose for cat bite?

2023-04-05 08:19:44
I am already taking vaccine for cat scratch. It has a total of 4 doses and only one dose is remaining which is on April 21st. Today on 5th April an unvaccinated cat bit me. It bled so I cleaned it with soap and water and applied antiseptic. Do I need to start the vaccine from the start? Or, I'm good to take the last remaining shot?
