Cat´s_bite_poisonous_?

Is it dangerous when a cat bites ?

I´ve heard cats are more poisonous than scorpions or snakes since cats
are related to some sort of dinosaur.

Well, having just being bit by a cat, I can speak from experience. I don't
know if you want to call a cat poisonous, but a cat bite is serious. A
cat's mouth contains lots of bacteria and when a cat bites, the bacteria
goes deep into the wound. Most likely an infection will occur that should
be treated immediately with antibiotics. A cat bite should not be taken
lightly and if you are bitten by a cat, you should seek medical treatment.

LOL!!! No offense to the poster if this is a serious question but that's
really funny.

Why?

Humans are related to dinosaurs, too.

And to a human, the bite of a human is even more dangerous than
the bite of a cat - the bacteria living in a human mouth are
genetically adapted to eat human...

It's not the science behind what you are saying that is funny. I'm sure what
you are saying is 100% correct. It is just waking up on a Sunday morning all
groggy eyes and having the first words you read be:

"Is it dangerous when a cat bites? I´ve heard cats are more poisonous than
scorpions or snakes since cats are related to some sort of dinosaur"

Thinking of cats as "poisonous" and speculating on their relation to "some sort
of dinosaur" is just funny to me. Take care.

A bit from any fanged animal should be treated serously. Unless you know
the animal's medical history, there is a possibility you can contract
rabies. That is true from cats, dogs, and other animals. Any bite that
draws blood needs to be treated by a doctor quickly for any animal, esp.
when bitten by a stray.
