A feral cat that had been bitten by a raccoon has tested positive for rabies, the fourth confirmed case of rabies this year in Atlantic County. The cat was surrendered by the owner of a Mallard Court property in Pleasantville earlier this week according to the Atlantic County Division of Public Health. An investigation by the Division of Public Health found that the property owner had been bitten by the cat while trying to capture it outdoors. As a result, the property owner has started post-exposure rabies treatment.
