State law requires that all dogs, cat and ferrets are regularly vaccinated against rabies. Most often cats get rabies after being bitten by a wild animal. These animals can enter your home (bat) or other animal. Pet owners often don't plan on it but indoor cats do get out accidentally. If your cat had a possible exposure to rabies and is unvaccinated, it is recommended to euthanize the animal or vaccinate it immediately and place it on a strict confinement for 4 months.  Accidents are never planned but they do happen. Let's be prepared in case they do!
