Any living creature can have some sort of allergy or reaction to something but it is not a good idea to give people medication to a pet. Cats have a very sensitive nervous system and things as simple as aspirin can cause an adverse reaction. Take her to the vet if the sneezing and other symptoms do not go away after a few days.

Do not give human medications to a cat unless prescribed by a vet. Best to consult your vet about the allergy symptoms.

your kitty probably has an upper respiratory infection (URI) which needs to be treated by a vet because cats get secondary infections from the URI http://www.fabcats.org/catflu1.html .
DO NOT GIVE ANY HUMAN MEDICATIONS to cats as they can be deadly and kill a cat quickly. Don't take my word just call any vet and they'll confirm this as proof.

Don't give her a medication meant for people. That stuff is too much even for small children. Your cat is what, 10 or 12lbs probably? That will just make things worse. Call your vet.

Most likey you kitten is not allergic to your puppy. My cat has ashma. She has had it for about a year. She take steroid pills every other day and has an inhailer when she goes into a ashma attack. You really need to take her into the vet and have them take a chest x-ray. That is how I found out. Good luck and hope you get her back to normal again.

She probably has a cold. Animals don't get allergic to things. Don't do something stupid like giving her human medication for a pathetic diagnosis. If you care enough about her to worry, try taking her to a vet, or at least calling the vet and telling them her symptoms. That doesn't cost money.

your cat is not alergic to your dog. if your cat has had watery eyes for a while then it has the cold. Bring it to the vetenarian and it will give it medicine. If your dog is acting weird that means its not used to your cat acting this way. Dont freak.
