Do I need an injection if I was scratched by a two-month-old kitten?
Whether you need to be vaccinated if you are scratched by a two-month-old kitten depends on the situation. If you are scratched by a two-month-old kitten, you need to be vaccinated:
1. After being scratched by a cat or dog, as long as there is bleeding, it is a third-level exposure, and everyone should actively go to the epidemic prevention station to get the rabies vaccine.
2. If you are scratched by a stray cat in the wild or an unfamiliar cat, you must get a rabies vaccine in time. After being scratched, in addition to vaccination, you also need to rinse the wound with soap and water in time, rinse repeatedly for more than 20 minutes, and then go to the epidemic prevention department to get rabies vaccine in time.
3. If the scratch wound is particularly large and the amount of bleeding is large, serum immunoglobulin needs to be injected at the same time to achieve a more rapid effect of blocking rabies.
Do not vaccinate if you are scratched by a two-month-old kitten:
1. The skin is not damaged when scratched by a cat and Visible redness generally does not require injections.
2. When in contact with animals, if there is no obvious skin damage or bleeding, injections are not required.
