  abstract = {{R}ickettsia felis is an obligate intracellular bacterium that is different from other officially recognized rickettsial species. {I}t has multiple genes of different origins, an incubation temperature of less than 32 degrees {C}, and a conjugative plasmid. {T}his {R}ickettsia is commonly detected in febrile patients in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {R}. fells is frequently detected in cat fleas, but recently mosquitoes have been suspected to be able to transmit the bacterium. {H}owever, many aspects of the ecology and epidemiology of {R}. fells are not completely understood and remain to be uncovered. {W}e aim here to give an update of the current knowledge about this fascinating organism.},
