Rabies immunoglobulin dose

I got rabipur ARV injection first dose yesterday. Next doses recommend by doctor are on day 3,7,28. Is this correct schedule? Also I saw on Google that Rabies Immunoglobulin is given along with first dose but I was not given rabies Immunoglobulin. Will there be any problem bcoz I didn't took immunoglobulin?

Forced by my sister to get 2 rabies vaccination and 4 rabies immunoglobulin on the same day. I got scratched by our house cat. The scratch produced blood but I don't think it was serious. I definitely was sure that it wouldn't give me rabies. Our cat is obviously not rabid. What would happen if you get rabies immunoglobulin shots without exposure?
