If it's a puncture wound and it's not torn badly (like it would be if you jerked your hand away and it was still clamped on) then wash it out well with water, then wash it with peroxide and bandage it. Watch it carefully. Cats have very dirty mouths, and it's not uncommon to get blood poisoning. If it starts to swell badly, call your doctor. They will probably send you to the ER.

It would be best to go to the walk in clinic and get some precautionary antibiotics. Cat bite infections are messy.
