Abstract
Summary Typical murine typhus was obtained in male guinea pigs by inoculation of suspensions of Ctenocephalides felis, the cat flea. Negative findings were obtained with a suspension of flea eggs. At least five cases of typhus including one laboratory infection probably were acquired through the agency of cat fleas harbored by kittens carried away from a feed store.
