Sneezing bursts like that can be normal, especially in cats adjusting to a new home. It could be dust, cleaning sprays, diffusers, or even litter. Some cats are also sensitive to scented products (even the “pet-safe” ones). Try switching to an unscented, dust-free litter and avoid spraying air fresheners around her space.If she starts showing signs like watery eyes, nasal discharge, or a change in appetite, it could be a mild upper respiratory infection — common in shelter or rehomed cats. In the meantime, make sure she has a cozy, clean, and well-ventilated area to rest.If it continues for more than a week or worsens, we’re here to help. If you book a consult with Dial A Vet, we can talk you through next steps.
Is it normal that my cat sneezes 5-6 times in a row a few times a day? Otherwise she seems fine.
She’s about 1 year old and I just adopted her last month. She’s super playful and eating normally, but she does these sneezing fits like 3–4 times a day. Could it be dust or something else?
