My kitty Reno sneezes a lot
is this the sign of a respiratory infection, or does he have indoor allergies? I sneeze a lot too-the house is very dry.

6. Dry nose.
Get a humidifier, and you'll both be healthier.

9. better get the vet to check--if it's Feline Respiratory Disease
sounds like it--kitty can get bothersome secondary symptoms that might even lead to blindness or death. It's a simple and cheap antibiotic treatment.

11. Thanks-I'll take him to the vet
he acts fine-races around the house like a nut, is demanding and pushy as usual-but better safe than sorry.

12. I have a cat like that
My ex-feral MaMa has a sneeze tendency, she also gets an eye discharge every now and then. The vet thinks it's just allergies/dry air. Mama is looking at me right now, hopefully she won't sneeze in my face (she did that last week, and I ended up with a cold sore ugh).

13. If you got a cold sore, take her to the vet again
Feline Respiratory can be caused by herpes virus-which also causes cold sores.
