Touching or handling a potentially rabid animal does not constitute exposure unless someone has been bitten or scratched, in which case the person should seek medical attention immediately, according to health department spokeswoman Stacy Kriedeman.
Anyone with information regarding the cat is asked to call the Cumberland County State Health Center at (717) 243-5151 or the Department of Health at 1-877-PA HEALTH.
