I am 24 years old and have cats in my house. I am having very mild fever but not feeling well and soar throat and different kind of pain in my hand. I had cat scratches very often but only mild scratches. Wound is already healed. Do I have to take rabbies injection? I am feeling could this fever be because of rabbies. I got scratch 10 days ago and that too very mild. Got blood but not much to flow.

If the scratch is 10 days back and the cat is alive, then no need of vaccine. But even a mild scratch is the indication of rabies vaccination. In future you should remember it. And vaccinate your cat to get rid of repeated vaccination.
