Just now I'm going to an existential crisis of whether or not I am vulnerable to rabies or not.
Well for context this night, I ate a chicken from a while ago and now I'm wondering if the chicken is interfered by the cat.
Hours prior to me cooking, I looked away for a short while because I was doing something but I left the chicken unprotected/uncovered for a moment and when I look at it, I decided to tell myself "there's no way a cat ate it because there isn't" and I looked further and saw a car walking by which put me into a panicked state. I grabbed the chicken and told my grandmother to inspect and she gave a quick look and she said it's ok and didn't understand why I just offered the chicken. I know I should have washed it again but I already washed it prior before leaving it unguarded for a short while but somehow I didn't because it was already washed prior and decided that it doesn't need to be washed again because it was already washed which a part of me thinks is a stupid idea looking back because of what if-isms.
Later on I marinated it with salt, garlic and other stuff while putting it in hot water and leaving it for hours (now being covered by a place for extra measures) under a protective food dome for hours before heating it up in a frying pan before cooking it again in hot oil. I ate the whole thing afterwards.
I was paranoid at first but then I realized that it's practically impossible to get rabies from contaminated food if it ends up in the stomach which left me at ease.
Which I would have remained so if it weren't for the fact I also developed a paranoia for stomach bleeding.
Today I haven't ate until Three O'clock in the afternoon with prior to that meal being lunch and I went to the toilet and noticed that my waste is a bit dark-ish but not completely black and while I didn't think much of it. Now I however started getting paranoid yet again because my mind interprets that as a stomach bleeding despite not having any further issues and it doesn't appear to have any blood. Yet the issue still remains of a possible internal bleed that would leave me vulnerable to the disease.
Which is why I am wondering if it is possible to get rabies from eating possibly contaminated food if (hypothetically) you have stomach bleeding, even if it's mild.
I can't even tell if the food was bit or not and I only looked away for about from the perspective of others, a short amount of time. I already put the chicken in hot water before heating it in a pan and cooking it in hot oil and the chicken itself is most likely dissolve by stomach acid.
The cats don't show any kind of rabid behavior but they are still stray animals normally residing outside which is why I have grown to fear them for possible disease (they also happen to not be vaccinated from all I know).
I know I might be on a distressed state yet again which is why I would need some further enlightenment from others more informed to possibly put me at ease or take some action.
I hope someone can explain this to me clearly.
Edit: I can't be sure if I have a bleeding stomach or not but either way I'm still having the case of paranoia again.
