Homeless animals always evoke sympathy and a desire to show them some affection. However, by trying to brighten their homeless lives with your touch, you can encounter health problems of your own.
Even a domesticated animal can be a carrier of certain bacteria and viruses. Stray dogs, cats, and even birds (especially pigeons) can transmit bacterial and other diseases to humans, while appearing perfectly healthy themselves.
If you come into contact with a stray animal, it is important to immediately sanitize your hands with an antiseptic or, at the very least, use wet antibacterial wipes.
Moreover, the external environment can make animals aggressive, which can manifest at any moment. Any gesture or reaction from you may be perceived by a homeless dog as a signal for an attack, and it may respond with aggression.
In such cases, a visit to the doctor is unavoidable. Stray animals are unlikely to have been vaccinated against rabies, so after a bite, you must seek medical treatment.
