it is neurological, destroys brain cells. it is treatable after the subject is infected but before it sets in. the test for rabies must be done post-mortem as it involves disection of the brain. to be positively identified as having rabies, the subject is already dead. if you think you or your pet may have come into contact with a rabid animal, do something now! the only person i know of who died of rabies contracted it from bats living in her attic. she seemingly went insane in the last months of her life, and the rabies diagnosis was made only in the autopsy.
The main part of the body that is mostly affected is you brain, particularly the central nervous system, it also causes muscle spasms and severe salivation (it would look like a foamy substance) they will also sweat uncontrolablly and will be noticeable as no one should sweat that badly. Victims will be severely dibilitated in a way that they won't be able to help themselves, this can then lead unfortunately to death. Rabies can also be contracted through eating the flesh of an infected animal. This way however is a much more potent way of getting it.
