Stray kitten bit me, should I be concern

2026-04-04 19:13:27
A stray kitten jumped inside my room so to take it out I tried wrapping it in a cloth and taking it out. But it bit me through the cloth and a tiny cut formed which bled a little. It immediately (within 2 mins) stopped bleeding as i washed it under running water and then I poured dettol over it and washed again. It is barely visible now. Should I be concerned?
