I have a 4 month old kitten. We bought her from the mall. She had her first shots when we got her. From day one she has been sneezing a couple of times every hour!! I have never seen a cat do this so much. She eats and drinks like a pig, is VERY active and her eyes are clear. She does have some discharge when she sneezed, but who doesn't. Any input would be wonderful! Thanks!

Sounds like she has a respiratoy infection. Cats from pet stores and shelters usually have some health problems. She probably needs to go to the vet for a round of antibiotics to clear up the infection.

My kitten sneezes quite a bit too. He is 3 months old and has had his shots up to date and a full checkup from the vet and there is nothing wrong with him. Maybe some cats just sneeze more than others!

Our cat did this early on all the time. The vet said he had conjuntivis and most pound/pet store pets have this some outgrow it and some never get rid of the virus.
A year later we moved away from the thick pine trees and he suddenly quit sneezing. So maybe it's an allergy. Eitherway we are thrilled. Poor baby sneezing like crazy and what a mess it made on all our glass table tops.

One of my cats sneezes quite a bit. I always say "bless you" when he does. Now, when I sneeze, his brother comes running up, gets very close to me and says "meow, meow". It's almost as if he's sayig "blessyou" to me!
