Why Cat Scratch Happens
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.
What Is Cat Scratch?
A cat scratch is a break in the skin from a cat’s claws or teeth. Most heal alone, but they can become infected, and animal bites or scratches also carry a small rabies risk in Turkey.
How Cat Scratch Is Treated
The physician looks at the wound on camera, advises on wound care and prescribes an antibiotic if it looks infected. If the cat was a stray or unwell, you will be told 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
- Watch the area for redness, swelling or pus over the next days
