If the last Rabies vaccine a year and a half ago was not Tiger’s first Rabies vaccine ever, he should still have antibodies in his system/be at least partially protected. If the Rabies vaccine a year and a half ago was his first rabies vaccine ever, he should receive another one now (ideally a year after the first) which would be good for 3 years. Good luck!
