    Call your doctor to make sure you don't need a tetanus shot. Did it break the skin? Even if it didn't draw blood? If so, there are illnesses you can get from wild rabbits so tell your doctor what happened. Depending on the area you are in, there is Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever from rabbits, they can carry rabies, etc. So, just to be sure, check with your doctor.

    Get checked out by a doctor, even if the bite didn't break the skin.

    If it attacked you without provocation it might have been rabid.
