Just got home from the hospital. Was feeding and petting a stray cat who seemed very friendly until he became scared and bit me on the finger. He acted like nothing happened and still wanted to be rubbed. That was this morning. When my wife came home she freaked out because she works for the health dept. So off to the hospital, and right in the next room was a 5 yr. old getting rabies shots too. He had a dog bite. I got 7 shots tonight. More to follow, 1 in 3 days, then 1 in 7 days, 1 more at 14 and the last at 28 days, plus antibiotics for 2 weeks. I guess I'll be more careful when feeding strays. We could put the cat in quarantine for 10 days and wait, that's if I can catch him. But if he gets run over or killed by a coyote before I can do that , I would never know, so I got the shots and don't have to worry. If you are wondering, they were no big deal.
