E-rx.onlineUnderstanding Cat Scratch
A cat scratch is a break in the skin from a cat’s claws or teeth. Most heal on their own, but cat scratches can become infected, and animal bites and scratches also carry a small risk of rabies in Turkey.
Common Triggers
Scratches or bites from a stray or pet cat. Bacteria on a cat’s claws and teeth can enter the skin, and cats can carry an infection called cat scratch disease.
Symptoms of Cat Scratch
- Warmth, pus or a red streak spreading
- Red scratch marks on the skin
- Swelling and redness around the scratch
- Swollen glands near the scratch after a few days
- Mild pain or itching

Colakli has large hotels along the beach, so all-inclusive buffets and pools are the usual cause of trouble. Friendly stray cats around hotels and beach cafes are tempting to stroke. Do not touch them, and wash any scratch straight away.
How Cat Scratch Is Treated
The doctor looks at the wound on camera, advises on wound care, and prescribes an antibiotic where there are signs of infection. If the cat was a stray or unwell, the doctor will tell you whether you need to be seen in person for rabies advice. Treatment can involve wound cleaning, a dressing and, if infected, an antibiotic; a tetanus booster or rabies treatment is arranged in person when needed.
- Pat dry and cover it with a clean dressing
- Do not let the cat lick the wound
- Wash the scratch well with soap and running water
