This condition of the pet should not be ignored.
If you happen to hear your cat sneezing, there is no need to worry, as it is a normal reaction of the body trying to get rid of irritants that have entered the upper respiratory tract.
However, if the situation repeats with alarming regularity, it is worth being cautious, as some of the underlying causes of sneezing may pose a threat to the health of your pet.
Allergy.
It would be a mistake to assume that allergic reactions are exclusive to humans – our feline companions can also suffer from allergies.
Usually, sneezing in this case is accompanied by other symptoms such as wheezing, eye and skin discharge.
Infection.
Cats are also prone to infectious diseases.
Besides sneezing, other signs to identify an infection may include weakness, discharge from the eyes and nose, elevated temperature, vomiting, and diarrhea. Sometimes the cat may refuse to eat.
Other illnesses.
Sneezing can also accompany dangerous diseases in cats such as feline rhinotracheitis, calicivirus, panleukopenia, chlamydiosis, toxoplasmosis, and others.
Foreign object.
Sometimes a cat may sneeze because a foreign object, such as a small insect, has entered its nose. This is not surprising, as cats are curious explorers, and their nose serves as a tool for discovering the surrounding world.
Finally, it is important to remember not to diagnose your beloved pet on your own. If your cat’s condition raises concerns, it is advisable to consult a veterinarian.
