Cat scratches alot should I visit doctor
I have adopted a injured stray cat a while ago & now she gave birth to 2 babies 2 months ago. The adult cat was vaccinated after the birth and scratched me in defense once or twice but the kittens don't understand alot of things rn and scratch a lot everyday while playing. Do I need some kind of vaccine or treatment to make sure these cuts don't lead to something else?

Best is to avoid cats. You brought the cat home when she was injured. Now you have to save yourself.
