Whole-blood samples were collected from 58 free-ranging lions (<jats:italic>Panthera leo<\/jats:italic>) in South Africa and 17 cheetahs (<jats:italic>Acinonyx jubatus<\/jats:italic>) from Namibia. Blood samples were also collected from 11 cheetahs (more than once for some of them) at the San Diego Wildlife Safari Park. Bacteria were isolated from the blood of three (5%) lions, one (6%) Namibian cheetah and eight (73%) cheetahs from California. The lion<jats:italic>Bartonella<\/jats:italic>isolates were identified as<jats:italic>B. henselae<\/jats:italic>(two isolates) and<jats:italic>B. koehlerae<\/jats:italic>subsp.<jats:italic>koehlerae<\/jats:italic>. The Namibian cheetah strain was close but distinct from isolates from North American wild felids and clustered between<jats:italic>B. henselae<\/jats:italic>and<jats:italic>B. koehlerae<\/jats:italic>.
