11 yaşında dişi bir kedi ateş, letarji, mukozalarda ikter, karında şişkinlik ve iştahsızlık şikayetleri ile Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Eğitim Hastanesine getirildi. Ehrlichia canis enfeksiyonu, sürme froti hazırlanarak ve ayrıca indirek immunofloresan (IFAT) yöntemiyle teşhis edildi. Sürme frotiler incelendiğinde belirgin anemi ve eritrositlerde anizositoz gözlendi. Nötrofillerin sitoplazmasında Ehrlichia spp morulası mevcuttu. Hematoloji ve biyokimya analizleri için kan örnekleri alındı. Tedavide doxycycline kullanılarak iyileşme sağlandı

An 11-year old cat presented to the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital in Mehmet Akif Ersoy University from a farm in Burdur province. She presented fever, lethargy, icteric mucous membrans, abdominal bloating and anorexia. An Ehrlichia canis infection was confirmed by blood smear and indirect immunofluorescence assay (IFAT) method. At the examination of blood smear marked anemia and anisocytosis were observed in erythrocytes. Ehrlichia spp. morulae stage were observed in cytoplasm of neutrophils. Blood samples were taken from cat for haematological and biochemical analysis. The cat was treated with doxycycline and recovered rapidly
