If it is a wild cat, it may cause rabies, but the probability is very small, but it is best to get a vaccine.
If the cat is domesticated, has not been in contact with other animals outside, and has not been bitten by small animals such as cats and dogs, then it is less likely that the cat will carry rabies virus.
If you can't guarantee the health of your cat, you'd better inject rabies vaccine in time.
Rabies is an acute infectious disease caused by rabies virus, which is zoonotic, especially for carnivores such as dogs, wolves and cats. Most people are infected by bites from sick animals. The clinical manifestations are peculiar fear of water, wind, pharyngeal muscle spasm and progressive paralysis. Because of the prominent symptoms of water phobia, this disease is also called water phobia.
Rabies virus belongs to rabies virus genus of Rhabdoviridae, single-stranded RNA virus, and animals spread the virus by biting each other. Rabies in China is mainly transmitted by dogs, and domestic dogs can become asymptomatic carriers, so seemingly "healthy" dogs are very harmful to human health.
There is no effective treatment for rabies. The death rate of human rabies is nearly 100%, and patients usually die of respiratory or circulatory failure within 3 ~ 6 days, so preventive measures should be strengthened.
