My pet cat bit me, but its behaviour has not changed in the past three days. Do I need rabies treatment?

Even if your cat seems healthy, you should see your doctor immediately, as rabies symptoms in animals can take time to appear. You may still need a rabies vaccination, a tetanus booster, and proper wound care to prevent bacterial infection.
