A member asked:
If a cat previously lived outside but then was vaccinated for rabies, how long do you have to worry about exposures that may have taken place prior to the vaccine? supposedly post exposure vax does not protect the animal and incubation can be <1 year?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If your cat had rabies you would know, it would not be well at all. It is wonderful that you care so much for your pet. Now take a deep breath and relax and go and stroke your cat.
