Olgunun materyalini Erciyes Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi kliniklerine iştahsızlık, halsizlik, apati ve sarılık şikayetiyle getirilen, 3 yaşlı, erkek, sarman kedi oluşturdu. Yapılan klinik muayenede hayvanda şiddetli dehidrasyon, tümmukozalarda ve deride ikterus, apati, kene enfestasyonu belirlendi. Hematolojik muayenede; anisositosis,trombositopeni, makrositik hipokromik anemi, lökositozis, neutropeni, lenfositozis, monositozis, basofili ve serum biyokimyasal incelemesinde glukoz 176 mg/dl, BUN 140 mg/dl, kreatinin 5.2 mg/dl, AST 1822 U/L, ALT 2703 U/L, totalprotein 7.6 g/dl, total bilirubin 27.3 mg/dl, konjuge bilirubin 20.3mg/dl olarak belirlendi. Giemsa ile boyanan perifer kanfrotisinde Haemobartonella felis (Mycoplasma haemofelis) tanısı konuldu. Hasta, oksitetrasiklin(Pan-Terramycine flk.,Pfizer®) ile 10 gün süreyle tedavi edildi. Tedavi sonrası, klinik olarak hastanın iyileştiği ve hematolojik muayenede;eritrosit 3.90 x106/µl, lökosit 28.7x103/µl, neutrofil 17.7 x103/µl, lenfosit 6.5 x103/µl, serum biyokimyasal incelemesinde;glukoz 94 mg/dl, BUN 169 mg/dl, kreatinin 5.1mg/dl, AST 74 U/L, ALT 52 U/L, total protein 8.8 g/dl, total bilirubin 2.3mg/dl ve konjuge bilirubin 1.4 mg/dl olarak belirlendi. Sonuç olarak; değerlendirilen olgunun haemobartonellozis olduğutespit edildi. Kayseri’de belirlenen ilk haemobartonellozis olgusu olması nedeniyle bildiriminin yararlı olacağı kanısınavarıldı
