Chipmunks may not be carriers generally, but they're wild mammals, so some are going to have it. <br /><br />And unless you bring the chipmunk that bit or scratched you to the doc so they can prove it doesn't have rabies, they're going to give you the vaccinations just in case. Because if they don't, and you start getting symptoms, it's too late to save you. <br /><br />Bottom line: You get the shots.<br /><br />By the way, rabies is an interesting disease. It makes the infected animal less fearful, so it will more willingly approach other animals. And people. It's one way the virus spreads itself around. <br /><br />Anyway, give Chippers a little pat for me next time you see him.Faegan Hartihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12795963908363588121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10155420.post-90489174153819769852012-10-14T10:34:05.803-04:002012-10-14T10:34:05.803-04:00The back, arm and spindles are red oak, the seat i...The back, arm and spindles are red oak, the seat is white pine and the legs are maple.
