Woman must have rabies vaccination A Greenwood woman began taking a series of rabies vaccine shots at Johnson County Memorial Hospital today because a cat that bit her Tuesday has not been found. Lora Herron, 20,. 1330 Peachtree 'Lane, said she was bitten on the leg Tuesday night when she reached down to pet a cat that came up to her in front of her Yorktowne Farms apartment. She believes the cat may be a stray because the apartment complex management does not allow pets. Another Yorktowne Farms resident said if the cat belongs to someone in the complex, the owner may be reluctant to come forward because a recent management circular warned pet owners could be evicted from their apartments.

Unless the cat is found and put under observation, Ms. Herron will have to take 14 shots-one a day, -to guard against the possibility of catching rabies from the cat, said Dr. Kelly Sieben of the Methodist Hospital Family Practice Center, Indianapolis. The woman described the shorthaired cat as black except for a white circle just below its throat. Ms.

Herron expressed concern that children in the compleg could be bitten by the same cat.
