7 month old kitten in new home

I just brought home a 7 month old Bengal kitten home 1/28/13 first 2 days he stayed hidden whene he did come out on the 3 rd day he has been snesing for 2 days a slight sense but still snesing . Would it hurt the to use disinnfecent spray in the room with the kitten in the room.

I would NOT spray anything and esp products like Lysol. He is probably experiencing a little upper respiratory cold that are very common in kittens. Does anything come out when he sneezes ? Are his eyes a little watery?. Just keep an eye on him and if it does not stop or any discharge starts you should take him to a vet. I would avoid any sprays , potpourri and scented candles as his immune system is still developing. I clean when my cats are napping and I use paper towels with the cleaner applied right to the towel ( over the kit sink)' . He may just be a kitten with sensitive breathing and might have allergies too. That's why I would do a visit to the vet. Was he adopted from a shelter or other place with lots of other cats? They pass the cold around like crazy in these environments.

With a Bengal kitten, I'm assuming you had him from a breeder?  Hopefully an ethical breeder...because then the first thing I'd do is call them for advice.  (If it wasn't an ethical breeder, they won't be able to give you good advice.)  My breeder is fantastic this way.

As you have a new kitten, can't hurt to take him for his first vet check up in any case.

As to cleaning products, this is an area where you must be very very careful.  I like ThreeCatNight's advice about not spraying and using product direct on paper towels.  I'd also say don't use commercial disinfectant unless you research it.  Most will harm cats.  I use a 50/50 mix of water and vinegar.  Vinegar is a natural antiseptic.  For stubborn areas you want to clean (shower/basin for example), add a little bicarb soda and lemon juice.  Non of these things will break down into harmful substances (for example, bleach will break down into chlorine - highly corrosive in lungs, or any tissue; and think what places you cat walks and lies upon - and then cleans himself with his tongue).

We revolutionised our household cleaners when we got a cat and now only use things like bleach in places you need it and where he can't go (like down the toilet - hopefully he doesnt go down there, but get into the practice of closing lids as I know what inquisitive cats Bengals are!).  I also use oxygen bleach for the cat litter box cleaning and rinse like a lunatic - oxygen bleach breaks down to natural soda ash, which is safe.  The upside other than health and safety, is that my homemade solutions are extremely cost effective (plus they work well)!

Finally, be careful even of 'natural' cleaning products.  There are still many 'natural' products that are toxic to cats (eg, some essential oils, ecualyptus).  And never use anything containing Ammonia - it will confuse your cat about where to pee, as this will smell like his pee and therefore wherever it is, is the 'right' place to pee!
