Watch her for 2 weeks, if she's alive, you're fine too. Only if she bites you in the face or hand, you have to go straight to the trauma center, they will give you shots, but not 40, don't be afraid. Do you live in the countryside? If you live in the city, then most likely the cat is not rabies, but some kind of nervous disease. Who told you she has rabies? A friend of mine shot a kitten and it turned out they just overdosed on it, treating it for fleas. That's when he started foaming and cramping. We're all so smart these days, at the slightest sign of rabies. And this is a very rare disease among pets. She didn't go hunting in the woods, did she?

I know someone who shot a kitten and it turned out they just overdosed it on flea treatment. That's when he started foaming and cramping. We're all so smart these days - rabies.

she hurt him? If she did, go to the emergency room.
And who made that diagnosis?
For rabies, a man gets 40 shots in the abdomen.
Rabies is a rare diagnosis. If the cat does not die within 10 days, everything is normal. But run to the clinic there are vaccination offices.
rabies is either present or not.
vaccinations - it is already late and it is necessary to inject the vaccine if and in hospital in a stomach though as I remember - rabies is spread by bite, through saliva. well or if there was contact of open wounds of the person and animal. but I understand that the injection was not made with wounded hands, then the needle did not stick in itself, and did not lick. and immediately thrown out together with a syringe. The risk of infection was minimal. 6 shots - vaccination, the course of vaccination 40 But it is not harmful to take tests - all in the hospital.
If you have bitten your cat then go to the clinic or even a trauma center and if you are sick, take your cat to the vet and a doctor will tell you what to do!
Red cat, rabies is transmissible if the person who injected your cat had a scratch or wound and the rabies virus is weak in the environment.
