It's uncommon to rabies from rats. However, if you're not sure what kind of rat bit you, it's better to be safe since Rabies is a fatal disease. With no given history of prior vaccination, Category II wound. I'd suggest you to complete the recommended course of Rabies vaccine.
Next Steps
Get the complete course of rabies vaccination.
