Hello,
If the kitten is your own kitten and her behavior is normal, it is unlikely she has rabies and rabies prophylaxis is unnecessary. I would recommend you to talk with your doctor and ask for more information about why the vaccine is recommended.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
