[/INST] HIThanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.      Following  cat bite first thing you need to do is wash the wound with soap water . Get a Tetanus Injection ( if not taken in the past 3 years ).      Then if you can observe the Cat  for 10 days and nothing happens to it then not need for any vaccination. But if you can’t observe it or if it dies within 10 days then you should get the vaccination . Also there is no need to get Vaccinated if your pet has been vaccinated for rabies before. Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarifications feel free to ask . Regards. </s>
