The rod-shaped Bartonella bacteria can survive and replicate inside other cells, much like viruses. This ability allows them to evade conventional tests for detecting infection and makes it harder for antibiotics to kill them. Bartonella henselae is the most commonly seen infection in humans and causes cat scratch disease--also called cat scratch fever. Despite the name, B. henselae and other disease-causing Bartonella can be spread through dogs and other mammals, and parasites like ticks, fleas, and lice. I
