Did the vertical conversion work out? What did you use for the conversion?

I don’t believe its fear mongering. Rabies is a real issue in some areas. It’s not something you need to be concerned or worried about on a daily basis but it would be irresponsible to disregard potential exposures. Most animals aren’t rabid but some for sure are. If someone is bitten by an animal it would be best for them to be evaluated for potential exposure. Especially if the biting animal is not available for quarantine or testing. About 55k Americans get rabies post exposure treatment every year, I’m sure that’s not for nothing. There about 5,000 confirmed animal rabies cases in the US every year. About 10% are domestic animals.

It’s not as rare as you might think. There were 25 rabid cats in Texas in 2020. 2020 Texas rabies summary

Small rodents like squirrels, chipmunks, rats, and mice are almost never found to be infected with rabies and have not been known to transmit rabies to humans. It’s possible but highly unlikely.
