Do I Need a Rabies vaccine ?
I was scratched by a stray cat on 20.05.2025, and The scratch slightly tore the skin, but it was not deep. The cat is not vaccinated . I washed the area with soap and water, and took a tetanus injection the next day.Until yesterday, the cat looked healthy, but now its eyes appear abnormal—possibly due to a fight with another cat.
Since the cat's condition has changed and it is not vaccinated ,should I take a rabies vaccine like Rabivax-S for safety?
