I've read all the responses and everyone guided you well. If you don't have a rabies tag for her, then don't tell him it's your cat (like you were advised). In my opnion, I don't think they would let you quarantine her at home since you have other animals. It's not worth the risk.

Please, please keep us posted. I do hope you have medicated it well after washing the affected area.

Sending luck your way, Jannes!

Subject: [Felvtalk] Cat Bite


Last night I had Amber in my lap upstairs. I am trying to get her use to seeing
the other cats and use to the upstairs life. I had the IFA test performed by
another vet and will hear from it next week. I am being optimistic so I wanted to get a head start on getting her acclamated. My youngest cat Moses decided to
suddenly jump in my lap with her and Amber freaked out! In the process of
holding on to her she bit me very hard on my hand. It hurt so bad and still
does. It is red and slightly swollen. My husband thinks I am being paranoid
about it, but I had a friend who almost lost his arm due to infection from a cat
bite. Should I visit the doctor??
