A member asked:

We have a feral cat that we feed on our stall in the market. one day, he was lying down near the door and my mom went over to him. he bitten her but it didn't bleed nor left a mark. it's about a week or so and the cat seems fine. does she need shots?

I recommend your mother get evaluated whether the cat actually got bitten and its teeth broke the skin barrier. Use the websites to find treatment facilities near you: https://rabies.doh.gov.ph/index.php/rabies-facilities/public-animal-bite-treatment-centers.
