What Is Rabies?
8. Prevention
Rabies vaccinations are available for people and other animals, including pets. You should speak with a doctor about a vaccine if you are travelling to parts of the world where the disease is found. Also vaccinate your pets, and make sure that you keep up to date with any further vaccines as necessary.
Keep any pets safe to help prevent them from being attacked by infected animals, and also avoid approaching wild animals, and any animal that appears to be ill. Also avoid touching animals when you are travelling even if they are a seemingly harmless kitten or puppy. Keeping bats out of the home is another way to help stay safe.
