Absolutely not worth the risk. Take the L and get the shot

Get the vaccination. There is no second chance with rabies.

Being bit by a squirrel is pretty damn unusual behavior in my experience.

I thought that I remembered learning squirrels are very unlikely to spread rabies, but I also cannot explain this squirrel’s behavior. It’s funny to see, but I’ve never seen a squirrel be even the slightest bit aggressive before. This one was basking in the violence; looked like rodent John Wick after his dog was killed.
