The Florida Department of Health in Santa Rosa County reminds residents that a rabies alert is currently in effect for the Navarre area after another report of possible rabies in a kitten. The kitten died after developing neurologic symptoms; however, rabies could not be confirmed because the brain was not suitable for testing. As a precaution, three Navarre residents who were exposed to the kitten are receiving post exposure rabies vaccine. The rabies alert will be in effect until Aug. 5.
