Rabies is a virus that attacks the central nervous system of mammals (including humans). Common carriers of the disease include raccoons, skunks, foxes, bats. Transmission occurs most often through bites or contact with contaminated saliva on wounds or moist tissues of the mouth, nose or eyes. The vast majority of animals that contract rabies will die, the condition is incurable. |
Carry health documentation, including proof that your pet has been vaccinated against rabies. Incubation in cats can range from 2 to 12 weeks. Untreated, rabies is also fatal to humans. A person who is bitten or scratched by any suspect animal should wash their wound thoroughly and seek immediate medical attention. |
