Hi! I may sound dumb, but I have just been scratched by one of the street cats I am feeding outside. The scratch went through my vein on my hand so naturally it bled a bit. It is a bit swollen now. My question is: Can rabies be transmitted through a mere scratch or has to be really a bite? I am not sure if this cat has rabies too.
I searched online and it says it is highly unlikely as it has to be by saliva, but I just need more assurance here. Cats lick their paws too.
