Should i get a rabbies vaccine or not

2026-11-06 20:42:01
Yesterday a stray cat scratched me, it is a very small scratch nearly 1cm long, which is not deep at all, it is just like a minor scratch that we get from rough surfaces, do i need to get a rabbies vaccine, it is a super minor scratch, and its day 2 and it has completely healed and i feel like it will completely disappear in next 2-3 days
