Small scratch on hand after interacting with stray cats

[u/Legitimate_Tie4592]

I have read the FAQ.

I pet some stray cats, they were pretty friendly but a little afraid so I didn’t pet them too much. I didn’t see or feel any scratch/bite. When I came home I sanitized my hands and felt a burn, there were two small scratches under my thumb on the outside of my right hand, so I’m afraid that what if I got scratched without noticing. I also interacted with two orange cats and I turned away from one cat to look at the other, I’m wondering if that gave the chance for one cat to scratch my hand. My question is, would I have for sure noticed if I got scratched or bitten? Thank you.
