Hello doctor I have an Indian star tortoise he is a healthy baby but for the past 3 days he is not opening his eyess what should i do now ? Can you suggest something

My cat got into a fight a few days ago and sustained a wound on his ear. Since then ear flap is swollen and has dark/brown scabs that are peeling off. There is pus coming from the wound. The wound has a bad smell, similar to feces. He growls or moves away if the ear is touched but is still eating and licking his paw near the ear. Peeling of the scabs reveals more redness on the ear. I have himalaya Scavon Vet Spray should I use it . Help me pls

Unknowingly I have touched a dead baby bat body. So I have a doubt does a dead body of a bat can transfer any rabies virus? Just by a touch with a bat dead body can anybody get infected by rabies virus?

I completed my full rabies vaccination course on 7 August 2025. The same dog that previously bit me bit my dog again on 23 September 2025. I started my dog’s rabies vaccination after that — he has received three doses (the most recent on 2 October 2025), and his final dose is scheduled for 6 October 2025. My dog has also received his regular yearly vaccination. Today, the same dog bit my dog again, and while I was cleaning my dog’s wound, he licked an open wound on my hand. Please advise what I should do next.

I RECEIVED THE FULL COURSE OF RABIES VACCINE (4 DOSES) INCLUDING ERIG ON 01/12/2024 (LAST VACCINE DATE). But yesterday a street dog scratched me (minor scratch no bleeding but pus and pain) A little bit confused is it from the dog scratch?? (picture attached) I went to govt hospital and they recommended 2 booster doses on day 0 and day 3. (Picture attached). Is it enough for protection? I took tt injection and O day booster dose yesterday. <

I recently touched forehead of a street dog it was standing next to me, he licked my hand after 10 min i forgot to wash my hand and ate some food. Am in any trouble of rabies or anything else?

My friend’s dog reacted suddenly while being given medicine and left some marks on his arm. There's minor swelling and no pain and no bleeding. Please suggest what to do..

6–7 months ago, I was superficially bitten by a domestic cat on my foot (no bleeding). The cat stayed at home for some days, but I am not sure if it was present for the full 10-day observation period. The cat appeared normal while it was around. Since then, no one in my family (3 people bitten) has shown any rabies symptoms. Given this timeline, is there still any real risk of rabies, or can it be ruled out now?

My dog chased and bit a rat. The rat isn’t fully dead—it’s still alive. I’m really worried about my dog. Is she safe? Please helppp🙏🙏🙏🙏
