If a cat scratches and peels off a little skin without bleeding, it means that the skin is damaged and germs will still take the opportunity to enter. The wound should be washed with soapy water for more than 15 minutes as soon as possible, and then iodine and medicinal alcohol should be applied and disinfected 2-3 times alternately. If the cat is normal, rabies vaccination is not required. The main reason is that there is generally no rabies virus on cat claws. As long as they are cleaned thoroughly and promptly, it can also prevent rabies. If your cat is sick or you are worried, you can get a rabies vaccine. During the rabies vaccination period, you should not drink alcohol, strong tea, do strenuous exercise, and eat less spicy and irritating food. Try to avoid catching a cold.

What to do if you are scratched by a cat:

1. Clean the affected area. In daily life, if the human body is slightly red and swollen after being scratched by a cat, the affected skin can be cleaned with soapy water under the advice of a doctor. After the skin is kept dry, medical iodine can be used for disinfection.

2. Apply medicine. If you are scratched by a cat and fail to seek medical treatment in time, bacteria and other bacteria can invade the body through the skin of the affected area, causing some redness and swelling after being scratched by a cat. Erythromycin ointment, mupirocin ointment, compound polymyxin B ointment and other drugs can be applied under the guidance of a doctor for treatment.

3. Inject vaccines. If the cat scratches you and causes serious redness and swelling, you can inject rabies vaccine into the skin as directed by your doctor to prevent rabies.
