Rabies Alert: Feral Cat Tests Positive

A feral cat in Suffolk tested positive for rabies after being taken in by a resident on Cove Point Drive — it was humanely euthanized and tested. Rabies is deadly but preventable through prompt treatment after exposure, especially via bites or scratches. Pets unvaccinated against rabies are at risk if exposed, so immediate contact with Animal Control or the Suffolk Health Department is critical. Stay safe: keep your distance from wild and stray animals — raccoons, bats, foxes, skunks, and feral cats — admire them from afar. Vaccination and awareness are your best defenses.
