Bartonella henselae is a gram-negative bacterium that typically exhibits a small, rod-shaped (bacilli) morphology. It is often observed in clusters or as single cells under a microscope. The bacterium is non-motile and can be challenging to culture in laboratory settings due to its fastidious growth requirements. Additionally, it has a unique ability to invade and survive within host cells, particularly endothelial cells.
