The probability of getting rabies after being scratched by a cat is very low. According to statistics, less than 0.5% of patients who are scratched by a cat develop rabies. Rabies itself is a relatively rare disease. Among the rabies patients in the country every year, more than 90% of the patients are bitten by dogs without injection of rabies vaccine. It is very rare to develop the disease after being scratched by a cat, so the risk is relatively low.

Precautions after being scratched by a cat:

1. The wound should be cleaned in time, including using soapy water, iodophor, hydrogen peroxide, and saline to clean the wound.

2. It is recommended that patients actively inject rabies vaccine to reduce unnecessary rabies virus infection.

3. In addition to rabies vaccine, you can also choose antibiotics to fight other bacterial infections.
