This is getting weird..................city mouse versus country mouse, I

The animal control officer called and told me if I see the cat, not to shot 
it in the head.
He said he'd send the head to be tested if I didn't damage it.  Said if 
I_did_see the cat though, it's probably
not dead (huh???)    That if I were infected two weeks ago the cat would be 
dead by now.  So that means
the cat doesn't have rabies and I can go ahead and shot it in the head if I 
want to.
