Greensboro just got a rabies alert — a bat tested positive, marking the 13th case in Guilford County this year. Health officials remind pet owners: cats, dogs, and ferrets four months or older must be vaccinated, no matter if they’re indoor or outdoor.

If bitten by any animal, wash the wound immediately, seek medical care, and notify Animal Control right away.
