Do you think i should take my 3-year old girl to a doctor after a cat bite?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Cat bite: If the cat's teeth broke the skin like a puncture would you should take her in. About 50% of cat bites will become infected. If it is a scratch it is ok to keep an eye on it at home.

Absolutely if bled: Cats will puncture skin easily and have a strong propensity for infection. If it caused any bleeding, don't delay, see your doc who will put them on the proper antibiotic...
