I stupidly poked my finger through my friend's pet rat cage and it bit me! (I deserved it.) it bled for a minute then stopped. I washed it immediately but now I'm freaking out about contracting some terrible disease like tetanus or rate bite fever. I can't remember when I had my last tetanus booster.... I called my doctor's office but they haven't gotten back to me yet.
Anyone with pet rat experience have any words of wisdom? It was a large "fancy rat" purchased at the pet store. I should add that another friend was bitten a couple weeks ago and he's was fine.
