Yes, but the danger profile is very different. A dog bite will do all the damage it's going to do instantly. If it's a big dog, it can be severe, but otherwise it's generally just a minor wound you can treat the same way you'd handle a scrape or accidentally cutting yourself in the kitchen. A cat bite puts you at risk of several very serious infections which may not develop until much later and can cause long-term consequences. Dogs do impact damage, but cats do poison damage.
