Hi, I Am 23 years old on 17 dec 2017 I was bitten by a cat I got three vaccines shots which was completed in Jan 2017 .then in Jan 2017 I was bitten (minor cut) by my lil kitten. I hadn't got any vaccine. 10 days ago in 2019 my cat scratched just a minor scratch. I applied turmeric on it .scratch was gone after one day. I heard that vaccine is last for ab year so I didn't get any vaccine. Now I want to know should I get vaccine again I am extremely worried. please suggest me what to do?

It's better to take a single shot again. I advise you to get your pet get vaccinated by a veterinarian.
