Is it serious if a pet cat scratches cause minor bleeding?

In general, minor bleeding from a scratch by a pet cat is not serious, but it is still recommended to promptly visit a正规 hospital to receive rabies and tetanus vaccines. The specific analysis is as follows:

When scratched by a pet cat with only slight bleeding, the injury is usually not severe in terms of wound depth. However, although pet cats are typically kept indoors and may have been vaccinated, they cannot be completely ruled out as carriers of the rabies virus or other pathogens. Even a minor scratch with slight bleeding may provide an opportunity for viruses or bacteria to enter the body.

Therefore, despite the small size of the wound, it is still advisable to seek professional medical treatment at a正规 hospital as soon as possible and receive rabies and tetanus vaccinations. These vaccines can effectively prevent serious diseases such as rabies and tetanus.

During wound management, doctors will also perform procedures such as wound cleaning and disinfection based on the specific situation to reduce the risk of infection.
