You can give them the shot right before they move. Call your vet for more info.
Should babies be tested for rabies if they bite too often?
No. We test animals for rabies if they act uncharacteristically. For many wild animals, biting humans is an uncharacteristic behavior. The test for rabies requires removing the brain. This kills the test subject and so cannot be used on babies.
How long does rabies vaccine last in humans?
There are a number of reputable sources online that state that immunity lasts at least 2 years. Some sources say 2-3 years but that titers should be checked after two years. Emergency room physicians that gave me a rabies vaccination series a few months ago after a cat bite said that immunity lasts one year. But the consensus online seems to be two years unless one is at frequent risk in which case their titers should be checked regularly.
Several sources say a two shot series should follow an exposure if the person had been previously vaccinated, but they don't indicate if that is only in the case of a 2-3 year gap in initial vaccination.
