A complete blood count and<jats:italic>nuoG<\/jats:italic>gene real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) for<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>spp. were performed in 370 blood samples from cats in Valdivia, Southern Chile.<jats:italic>nuoG<\/jats:italic>qPCR-positive samples were submitted to conventional PCR for the<jats:italic>gltA<\/jats:italic>gene and sequencing for species differentiation and phylogenetic analysis. Alignment of<jats:italic>gltA<\/jats:italic>gene was used to calculate the nucleotide diversity, polymorphic level, number of variable sites and average number of nucleotide differences.<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>DNA prevalence in cats was 18\u00b71% (67\/370). Twenty-nine samples were sequenced with 62\u00b70% (18\/29) identified as<jats:italic>Bartonella henselae<\/jats:italic>, 34\u00b74% (10\/29) as<jats:italic>Bartonella clarridgeiae<\/jats:italic>, and 3\u00b74% (1\/29) as<jats:italic>Bartonella koehlerae.
