This study detected Mycoplasma haemofelis (34.78%) and Candidatus M. haemominutum (65.21%) in 23% of Iranian cats via PCR. Infection correlated with age, gender and outdoor access (*p < 0.05), causing significant hematologic/biochemical changes. No inter‐species differences in clinical presentation emerged between Mhf and CMhm. ABSTRACT Background Data
