Bailey had bartonella and he was on Zithromax for 6 weeks before it
got better. Has your kitty been on doxocycline in case he has
hemobartonella? Tests for this almost always come up with false
negatives, sometimes cats have to be test 4 or 5 times or more to get an
accurate test result. The doxy won't hurt him if he is really negative
but may well save his life if he is testing false negative and really
has it.
I personally will put ANY positive kitty on it no matter what the test
says to be on the safe side. Hemobartonella is a very common thing that
positives get, it causes anemia and if left untreated WILL kill the
kitty. Their anemia will just keep getting worse and worse until they die.
