Hi there ~
I understand your concerns and it seems to me that you got a tetanus toxoid and pvrv after being bitten by a cat. I think that it is likely that you got a vaccine for rabies. I also think that you should consult your doctor before you take any injections. It would be in the interest of your own health to know what is being injected into you. I hope this helps.
Take care and have a lovely day!
