Rabies or allergies? |
About 4 and a half weeks ago I had a little brush with a raccoon. It wasn't foaming or staggering, and it was at 11:30 at night. It grabbed onto my jeans leg and I kicked it off and it ran away. I checked, my friend checked, and both my parents checked, but we could not find any evidence that it scratched or bit me. I did not get the rabies shot. Please check with you Dr. to be sure. I don't think a person can be to concerned in a case like this. Play it safe just to be sure. |
