It is generally unknown whether a stray cat is healthy. Therefore, after being bitten by a stray cat, you can use the following methods to determine whether vaccination is needed. First, check the wound. Second, you can use the ten-day observation method.

1. Check the wound: Wipe and disinfect the wound with alcohol. If there is no pain in the wound and there are no blood spots when squeezing the wound with your hand, it means there is no damage, and you will not be infected with rabies. No injections. If you feel pain, have obvious trauma, or have broken skin that has been licked, you need to go to the local CDC to get rabies vaccination, and follow your doctor's advice to determine whether immune globulin is needed.

2. Ten-day observation method:If possible, observe the animals for ten days. And first inject one dose of vaccine in time. If the animal remains healthy during the ten-day observation period, or if it is confirmed by reliable laboratory diagnostic technology that the animal does not carry rabies virus, the injection of the remaining vaccine can be stopped. If the animal dies due to rabies within ten days or is confirmed to be carrying the rabies virus, it must be fully vaccinated according to regulations.
