Bartonella henselaeand Domestic Cats, Jamaica

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2005
To the Editor: Bartonella henselae has been isolated from domestic cats in most countries where it has been investigated (1), with the exception of some countries at northern latitudes, such as Norway (2). The prevalence of both bacteremia and seropositivity in cats is usually highest in warm and humid tropical countries.
