There are too many people who are developing Psychiatric problems following a minimum touch of the cat or rat or dog (or bat, even though I have never seen a bat bite in my life).
You don't need immunoglobulin.
You don't need to get your antibody titre tested.
Rabies has no treatment but the mortality rate following a dog bite or a cat bite is very very low. It may not be expressed in numbers.
But there is no limit to getting scared.
Please lead a normal life. There is no point in becoming a Psychiatric case. Life has enough problems otherwise also.
