Do i have rabies???????????


So the other day my friends mom adopted a kitten that may have had rabies, but it died.?
My friend adopted a cat that may have had rabies, it died . Well the cat scrated my friend and I had no knowledge of this. We were hanging out the other day and I had one sip of her water. Do I have rabies??????

Unlikely. Please read what CDC says about rabies at http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dvrd/rabies/Qu... If you are a minor, then tell your parent(s) what happened. This is not a decision, or a diagnosis, you should make yourself. Rabies is fatal.

No and I doubt the kitten died of rabies.It most likely had feline leukemia.I don't think your friend has rabies either.Was the kitten tested positive for rabies?If she was really exposed she needs a series of 14 shots in the gut area.You can not get rabies from drinking from the straw it has to be a bite or scratch in the skin.

Rabies is not communicated this way. In this situation it is highly unlikely that the cats had rabies.

The first thing you must know is that rabies is extremely rare in developed countries... The second thing you must be ware of is the symptoms...Double vision, high fever, flu like symptoms...

I think the safest bet is to go to your family physician and discuss it with him...
