4 of my cats had Bartonnella.The girls Lucy and Penny were missing teeth at such a young age and we found out it was Bartonnella.They are doing great now.Tucker had it.Being a kitten with bloody gums.And now his gums look beautiful.Like new.Rosco had it too.If I had him when he was younger he probably wouldn't have broncitis right now and need prednisone every couple days for life.Bartonella can cause so many problems.BooBoo didn't have it to my surprise with his stomatitis.But it is good to get a blood check for that.We had all my cats tested for it.I think BooBoo didn't have it because I've had him since 6 weeks old and no fleas were near him.
