My cat hunts. Will it affect his rabies titer for Hawaii move?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Male | neutered | 12.5 lbs

My cat Tigger and I are moving to Hawaii, he got his second rabies on June 5th, 2020, and on July 31st, 2020 he got a rabies antibody test FAVN for the move to Hawaii. He is an outdoor/indoor cat that likes to hunt and kill squirrels, rabbits, birds, and lizards. Is this going to affect my cats ability to get a 0.5 IU/mL or greater?

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Tigger. No, his hunting will not interfere with his rabies titer. If he has been adequately vaccinated, the vast majority of patients will have an appropriate titer. I hope this information helps!
