Hello dear,welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I reviewed your query and here is advise.
Rabies is most often transmitted through a bite from an infected animal. Less frequently, it can be passed on when the saliva of an infected animal enters another animal's body through mucous membranes or an open, fresh wound. So you have less chances of getting rabies.
Hope I have answered the question.
