My cat is given the first dose of biofel which is for rabies and the next dose is next year. Yesterday my cat playgully but and scratched me a bit. No excessive bleeding happened just scratch and slight redness and if I queeze the cuts then hardly any blood comes out. Do I need to take vaccine considering I was given 5 shots 6 to 8 months ago cause a stray cat cut my leg.

Hi it’s category 3 you need full doses of rabies vaccine but if it is taken in last 6 months then you don’t need immunisation.
