Consider consulting a human physician and consider taking immunoglobulins if you had a deep wound.

If you have taken all 5 rabies vaccine doses properly, you are safe, even if the cat died.
Rabies vaccine is highly effective when the full course is completed.
For extra reassurance, you can do a Rabies Antibody Titer test 2–4 weeks after the last dose.
A level ≥ 0.5 IU/mL means you are protected.
No need to worry if the full schedule was completed correctly.
