If you get bitten by a cat, especially on a hand, just drop everything and go to urgent care for antibiotics. The risk of a cat bite getting infected is at least 25%, and it's not a small deal. I have seen a pretty aggressive cellulitis develop in less than 24 hours. It's normally Pastuerella multicida. Dog bites get infected less than 5% of the time, though antibiotics are still prescribed.

It's also surprising how often a kid comes in with ringworm and it turns out they just adopted a feral or shelter kitten or handled one somewhere.

OTOH, we had a big scare with our little momma Portuguese Water Dog. She lost a litter and her uterus and initial diagnosis was Brucella canis. For practical purposes, it's not really curable and can affect humans. In some states you may have to euthanize the dog. Final tests were negative though.

Everyone who drives a Prius, a minivan, a Subaru wagon, listens to NPR, or who lives in Berkeley and has more than one bumper sticker on their vehicle.

Basically around 110 percent.
