Emerging Risk of Flea-Borne <em>Bartonella</em> in Tropical Cities: Evidence from Stray Cats in the Klang Valley, Malaysia

2025-10-29

Abstract excerpt

Urban stray cats are often associated with ectoparasites and zoonotic pathogens due to their unsanitary living conditions and lack of veterinary care. Fleas, especially Ctenocephalides spp., are competent vectors of Bartonella spp., a genus of emerging bacterial pathogens with both public health and veterinary relevance. This study investigated the presence of Bartonella DNA in ectoparasitic fleas infesting stray...
