What should I do if I am bitten by a dog, a cat or a pet ferret?
Contact your health care provider for care of the wound. Contact animal control and report the incident to them. They can help you to assure that the animal owner quarantines the animal that bit you for at least 10 days to make certain the animal does not have rabies.
