Hi,
understand your concern. Shingles/chicken pox are contagious. However, the zoster virus is contagious only in its active stage. It is non- contagious in dormant stage. Almost every person carries it whoever is infected in their life time. It stays dormant and reactivates at times. Thats the time when it is contagious. Else do not worry, it doesnot harm in anyway.
Hope this is clear. For further details, please connect online/in-person.

After the bite, vaccination should be started as early as possible, however if the cat doesn't show symptoms in 10 days, post exposure prophylaxis can be converted to pre exposure prophylaxis by skipping the dose on day 14 and continuing on day 28, if using the im regimen.
