If you’ve ever wondered why a cat licks your hands, it’s often tied to their grooming habits, which also serve as a form of social interaction and communication in the feline world.

What is Cat-Scratch Disease? Cat-Scratch Disease (CSD), also known as cat-scratch fever, is a bacterial infection caused by Bartonella henselae. This infection spreads primarily through scratches or bites from infected cats. While it can affect anyone, children and those with weakened immune systems are more susceptible. Symptoms often include a bump or blister at the scratch site, swollen lymph nodes, fever, headache, and fatigue. Although most cases are mild and resolve on their own, severe complications can occur, especially in immunocompromised individuals. Understanding CSD's causes, symptoms, and prevention can help keep you and your pets healthy.
