Some cats bother their owners with constant sneezing: seeing how the animal sneezes over and over again, the owner begins to think that his pet is sick. However, not always animals sneeze due to a cold, experts say.

Often, in this way, cats simply clear the nose of dust and odors. Pets go where the most dust accumulates, and they especially like to get into tight spaces that a vacuum cleaner does not always get into. Climbing under the sofas, the cat clogs its nasal passages with dust and then can sneeze for a long time, clearing its nose.

In addition, a cat can seriously sneeze if perfume or cologne is sprayed next to it. Pungent odors irritate the sensitive nose of the animal, and it reflexively gets rid of the remnants of the smell, the gorodche.ru portal writes.

It is worth worrying if sneezing is accompanied by a runny nose, the animal becomes lethargic. This means that the cat is sick and needs the help of a veterinarian. In this case, it is advisable to measure the temperature of the pet, and if it is above 38 degrees, then it is impossible to postpone going to the doctor, since the disease can be dangerous for the pet. And if you don’t have the skill to take a cat’s temperature, it’s best to just take her to the vet.
