Rabies doesn't transmit through fleas. You're likely fine if you don't have any open wounds.

If you don't have any open wounds, you'll be okay. The risk is low, especially since you just petted the cat's head and body.

There's no risk of contracting rabies from a cat's casual contact, such as licking your shoe.

You're not going to contract rabies from petting a healthy-looking street cat, especially if you didn't get bitten or scratched.
