    I am no help on the introduction side but I definitely recommend Alexa gets her tetanus shots and antibiotics.
    However I know I would tell I wanted to catch a stray and he bit me- you know that Tuna is inside and I guess he's up to date on his shots- so bacteria from dirty cat claws is all you can get- no rabies.

    Most likely the things they would do for a dog bite they won't do for a cat but I am not sure. I definetely would not avoid medical treatment thought that sounds like a bad bite.
    don't breed or buy while shelter dogs die....

    Thanks Kfamr for the signature!

    I caught a bite from one of my own indoor only cats.... it infected and I went to the ER... The nurse reported it and the sheriff was called to the ER to investigate. Both the sheriff and I thought it was idiotic (the rule is to prevent animals from being a danger to the neighborhood and I just got bit in stopping a spat between my own pets).

    Fortuneately my vet let me be my own "isolation" but did have to see the cat again in 2 weeks to say he did not develop any symptoms.

    The sherriff and I decided in the future to blame all wounds on wire fencing.

    You may end up having to go through legal hoops....

    The bite isn't looking too bad, Alexa went and saw her mom and she was given some antibiotics for it.
