OK, don't laugh, but tonight, my male 2 Y/O leopard bit my nose!!!!!! He is
docile a teddy bear, and eats like a horse, and we get good eggs and strong
hatchlings from him. It was entirely my fault, I was rubbing noses with him,
like we often do, but tonight I think he was charged up after having a wax
worm treat, and took a bite!!!!!!
He drew blood, (not that it hurt, but those teeth are deceptively sharp!
Anyway my question is after having washed the cut (a bit like a razor nick)
with anti bacterial soap, do I need to get any shots from my doctor? I am
sure that I don't, but there is such a big anti-reptile thing in the press
here in the UK at the moment, if I believed everything they said I would be
convinced I will get salmonella poisoning, septicaemia and trench foot!
