Cats as a reservoir of Bartonella henselae for dogs

Annals of Agricultural and Environmental Medicine, 2019
Bartonellosis is a disease affecting a variety of animals. Many Bartonella infections are zoonotic, including cat scratch disease. Within the genus Bartonella are 45 species, of which more than 10 can infect cats and dogs.
