cat attack on dog (and me)

Question
My dog and I were attacked by a cat two days ago.  Although it seemed my dog had only a couple of scratches on her, today there is a spot on her spine that is swollen and she is very sensitive to touch there.  Do I need to get her vaccinated against some sort of cat-disease?  Also, do I myself need any vaccinations? (such as tetnus, etc.)
Thanks for the help, Mike

Answer
ok. i need more info.

if this was YOUR cat, make sure its current on vaccines. The same if its the neighbors cat.  

if YOU got bit or scratched, see your doctor.

your dog needs to see the vet. she may have an abcess by now.

good luck!


there are NO diseases other than RABIES that can be transmitted.
