is there any discharge when she sneezes? Sneezing especially with some discharge generally indicate a URI (cold) and the cat should be put on meds.

sometimes though sneezing could mean nothing at all... I would keep a close eye on her and if she continues to do it and there is discharge get her checked out by your vet.

Just keep an eye on her. It could just be she got a tickle in her nose or if you live somewhere where it's windy, it could be something in the air.

We took her I paid the high fee and he saw nothing but said a little fever 102 I think. He gave me meds which I give her. She went last night. He said he saw nothing but if wasn't better feel free to call him back but if it isn't to bad I could save money and bring her on Tuesday which is walkins. He will let me in 1 hr ahead (his nurse likes me male) It wont cost much I just hate knowing something could be wrong. I tried to get it out of my mind all day. and I did till she crawl on my chest. I honestly feel am just skittish could be nothing..

Did he give her antibiotics?

My cat had that when she had the kittens (and a bit of eye crud in the corner of her eyes, and so did the kittens. This was when they were just a few weeks old.

Took one kitten to the vet (who okayed that), said it was a slight upper respiratory infection, and gave me antibiotics for all. It was all cleared up a few days later, and alll were fine. I'dd say that if it's something like an upper respiratory infection, if one has it, they all do. And catching it really early is a good thing.

So if he gave you antibiotics, I'd ask about the kittens too. He had me give them the same thing, but a much, much smaller amount. But the kittens were a bit older.

But it sounds like whatever it is, you caught it early enough.

SHe seems ok other then that and I gave her the meds and it is antibiotic. She is pregnant not had them yet. He said we would do other test if it did not clear up.

It sounds very much like what my cat had, and the vet did the same thing. It took a few days but it cleared up, and the sneezing became less and less.

So although I can't say for sure, sounds like the docs did the same thing, and my guys were fine, and when they went for their shots, got an above-average bill of health.

SHe seems ok this morning. I have heard no sneezing. SHe groomed me to wake me up so I take it she is feeling ok.
