Cat bite, anti rabies vaccine

Question

Asked for Female, 23 Years

I've had anti rabies vaccine and anti tetanus last year due to a cat scratch. Ita a post vaccination I completed the 30 day cycle. I had two shot of booster for day 1 and day 3 last month due to kitten scratches and dog bite. Do I need to take another shot of booster now? My cat bit me, I stepped on her tail. My wound bled.
