Question
HELLO!

I am wondering about the sneezing both of my cats ahve been experiencing. They are indoor cats and I am a bachelor so I have some dust in my house but try to keep it down to a minumum. They sneeze every once in a while and was wondering if that is a sign of something bad. If you have any answers I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank You,
David

Answer
Hi David!  The sneezing is probably just due to the dust.  I really wouldn't be concerned.  Even the smallest amount of dust can make some cats sneeze.  It's not in anyway affecting their health.
As long as the sneezing is not accompanied by runny eyes and noses, there is no need to be concerned of an upper respiratory infection.
I hope this helps!
