Abstract: ABSTRACT We report the draft genome sequences of five Bartonella henselae strains detected in the blood of cats in Osaka, Japan. The average genome size was 1.85 Mbp, and the average guanine–cytosine content was 38%. All strains belonged to sequence type 1, the most common type among cat and human clinical isolates.
