Tessa is so cute! No, it isn't normal she hasn't stop sneezing. It could be that she has a respiratory infection, allergies, or may have something in her nose such as a grass seed. If this continues onto Monday, have her seen by a vet. The vet can diagnose the problem and prescribe treatment for her. I hope this helps!

It's not normal, but it doesn't mean she is sick. It could be allergies, a mild upper respiratory infection, something that is irritating her nose, etc. I would just watch her at home. If she becomes lethargic or is not interested in eating her food, that may be a concern.

Sneezing is usually a sign of an upper respiratory infection - this is a very common problem in kittens. Because Tiger is so young, I would definitely recommend having him seen by a vet for this issue as soon as you are able to - he should be started on antibiotics to treat the infection and help prevent him from developing more serious problems, such as pneumonia.

Sneezing can be caused by aerosolized irritants (deoderizers, diffusers, etc) in the air or it could be sign of an upper airway infection. I would recommend using Heppa filters in the home and doing a good deep clean, especially dusting. Then I would suggest getting Merlin on a supplement called Lysine which helps to boost her immune system to help her fight off infections. I hope that Merlin's sneezing improves soon! If not then its best to see your vet. Take care.

Hi and thanks for posting. Sneezing, coughing, discharge from the eyes or nose can signal an upper respiratory infection. If you suspect Tiger has an upper respiratory infection he'll need to see his veterinarian very soon. Typically antibiotics are needed to help with the infection. Until then I would make sure he has plenty of access to fresh water and if he is indoors with you, you may consider getting a humidifier to keep in areas where he spends the most time which can help with any congestion he may have.
